Purpose: to assess the patient’s opinion when they are treated by medical students in a university hospital. Method: it consists in a cross-sectional exploratory study using a survey with objective questions answered by patients of the University Hospital João de Barros Barreto after they received medical care in the hospital clinic related to the medical specialties. From August 2016 to February 2017, 230 patients answered the survey. They were adults (18 years old or more) who were receiving medical care and agreed to participate in this study, signing a Free and Clear Term of Consent. The patients who could not communicate without the aid of an accompanying person were excluded from the study. Results: The average age of the interviewed patients was 55.3±15.2 and 66.1% of them were men. The data showed that only 47.8% of the interviewed patients were informed that they would receive care from a medical student; 97.8% liked the medical care they received and 97.8% felt safe during the consultation. It was observed that the age of the patient was related to the feeling of embarrassment; 31% of the patients aged less than 50 years old said that they felt embarrassed in the consultation, while only 13% of the older patients had this feeling (p=0,0030).Conclusion: in conclusion, even that a great number of patients are not informed that they are going to be treated by supervised medical students, most part of them fell satisfied and safe with the medical care, which shows that there is no need to omit this condition from the patient, as the patient is usually satisfied and even interested to contribute with the student’s education.
