Results. The majority of participants were currently working as private practice practitioner, and majority do practice some of the preventive activities like breast examination, routine blood measuring etc. Only one-third of them do digitorectal examination. Collaboration with colleagues is poor. Most of participants practice group tehnique with hypertansive and diabetic patients but only few of them work with psychiatric patients.
