Abstract
Aim : We studied the relationship between Gunma University Hospital and clinics in diabetic treatment.
Methods : We analyzed the result of a questionnaires given to 27 clinic doctors who participated in our first seminar.
Results : The clinic doctors were almost satisfied with the relationship between Gunma University Hospital and their clinics, but requested quicker, and more detailed responses from Gunma University Hospital. They wanted to transfer their diabetic patients to Gunma University Hospital in any step of diabetic treatment. According to the transfer of the patients from Gunma University Hospital, some clinic doctors needed the information about the patient in advance.
Conclusions : Further questionnaires are necessary to establish a good relationship between Gunma University Hospital and clinics, since clinic doctors responding to this questionnaire, may mostly be many diabetic specialists.
