Medical education, supported by philosophical foundations and diverse approaches, bridges care, prevention, treatment, and improvement, encompassing both basic and clinical sciences. It is essential for specialists to leverage this field to address educational gaps and enhance teaching and learning. While experts excel in their domains, success in education requires understanding the principles of teaching, learning, and evaluation. Medical education, integrating key elements such as curriculum design, technology, leadership, and social accountability, has the potential to revolutionize health science education. Policymakers and managers must prioritize this field to advance both education and healthcare outcomes.
