ABSTRACT
This article aims to analyze multidisciplinary work, through an interdisciplinary perspective in the training of medical students with Balint-Paideia groups. This is a qualitative, descriptive, exploratory, and analytical research. The participants were undergraduate students who were in the collective health internship in a Brazilian university. The interns participated in Balint-Paideia groups while staying in family health units. For data collected, we utilized focus groups. For data analyses, was employed narrative construction. The argumentative axles found potentialities and obstacles to teamwork; the work-based training influence for collaborative work; Balint-Paideia groups role in the training process and in the relevant concepts to Primary Health Care learning. The pedagogical strategy combining Primary Health Care practice, interprofessional experience, and Balint-Paideia groups, with a singular therapeutic project development, although challenging, tends to provide a transcendent view to the strictly biomedical clinic and to asymmetrical relationships, evoking medical students to an interdisciplinary praxis construction.
