Abstrakt		One of the many problems of academic medicine is its detachment from actual health problems of the population. Family medicine has a potential of bridging this gap. The paper describes the positive experience from introducing family medicine as a new academic discipline to the medical school in Slovenia. Its introduction was of benefitto family medicine, which has received recognition and has experienced a rapid academic growth. Medical academic establishment has benefited by being exposed to new ideas in research and education. The key to success was the fact that the academic world accepted a newcomer to its midst and that the newcomer managed to integrate its principles into the rules of the academic environment. The next step in this process is to apply some of the positive experiences of the family medicine department to the curriculum reform of the entire faculty.
