In the article, the author discusses his work experience as being a physician and a specialist in dermatology. He devoted about twenty years to the study of skin diseases. According to him, dermatology separated from internal medicine about sixty years ago, but after many years of practice he is convinced that it is still a part of internal medicine. To be a good medical practitioner is the most difficult achievement for a physician. Perhaps it should be attempted only after a lifelong medical education in research, in technical skill, in special knowledge, in public health. It should be a privilege and an honor, after long and recognized activity in special fields, to acquire the title of General Practitioner.
