Conducting and writing quality improvement studies is a skill that every family and community physician should learn and apply in their practice. As family and community physicians it is one of our responsibilities to provide quality health care to our patients.1 Simply put, “quality” is doing the right thing right the first time and doing it better the next. Similar to the doctor-patient interaction in a typical consult, where the physician’s objective is to learn as much as possible about the patient’s signs and symptoms and medical history in order to make the right diagnosis and thus render the right treatment. The physician strives to do all this on the first visit and hopes to keep up-to-date on the condition so that when another patient presents with the same condition, he or she will receive better and more current care.
