Summary. Supervised role‐play is presented as a method for teaching the process of the medical consultation. The process of the consultation is reviewed and a brief description of supervised role‐play is given with some of its advantages and disadvantages. Some simple devices used in the method are explained with examples. The ‘living’ nature of the consultation is emphasized and an active method of teaching is advocated.
