OBJECTIVE: Consultation activity is an important aspect of urological practice, but the specific teaching of this activity is underdeveloped. The objective of this study was to establish a list of consultancy skills as a basis for a planned and structured approach to teaching and evaluation of consultancy skills in urology. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Two-step qualitative protocol: 1) Establishment of an initial list of skills based on data of the literature; 2) Submission of this list to a series of "focus groups" (urologists, interns, referring physicians) in order to validate and progressively refine the model. RESULTS: The items identified were classified into 3 distinct lists: 1) theoretical knowledge; 2) technical skills specific to urology, predominantly performed in the consulting setting, 3) interpersonal skills exclusively concerning the consultant-referring physician relationship. CONCLUSIONS: The consensual specification of these skills can be used to objectively define teaching and evaluation strategies for urology consultancy skills.
