The University of Houston has started a new medical school with classes starting in 2020 (I believe). The schools mandate says its focus is on creating primary care focused doctors. What would this mean for those students interested in becoming specialist physicians (including neurosurgery)?
I have noticed a number of schools in the U.S. (East Tennessee also comes to mind) that openly state that their goal is to create primary care physicians. Is it a disadvantage to attend these type of medical schools for those intending to go into a field as specialized as neurosurgery?
