Background.
Several studies found that physicians develop a negative attitude toward biochemistry and genetics disciplines.
Many medical schools adopt an integrated system-based curriculum supplemented with clinical correlations.
Medical schools in Jordan switched to the integrated curriculum; however, studies that evaluate the attitude of physicians toward biochemistry and genetics are lacking.
Objectives.
This study aimed to evaluate the attitude of physicians toward biochemistry and genetics including the correlation of their curricula with clinical practice.
Materials and Methods.
A structured questionnaire consisting of 40 statements was distributed to a random sample of 616 physicians practicing in private and governmental hospitals in Jordan.
Participants earned their MD or MBBS degree from Jordan or other countries and were interns, residents, or specialists.
Results.
More than half of the participants admitted that biochemistry and genetics are intellectually challenging and were among their least favourite subjects (59.1%); however, many of them were familiar with some of the contemporary advances in biochemistry and genetics and their translational potential (64.0%).
Most of the participants felt that modifying the medical school curriculum by integrating biochemical and genetic concepts with clinical teaching will motivate the medical students (74%).
In univariate analysis, residents showed the most positive attitudes and were the most knowledgeable about the biochemical changes associated with diseases and about the contemporary advances in biochemistry or genetics (P<0.05).
In multivariate analysis, physicians practicing in the private sector or those with more than five years of experience generally had a more positive attitude toward biochemistry and genetics (P<0.05).
Conclusion.
Physicians in Jordan showed an overall positive attitude toward biochemistry and genetics.
This was more evident among residents, physicians with more than five years of experience, or those practicing in the private sector.
