This article discusses the importance of chemical education in the formation of the clinical thinking of a doctor. The study of general and bioorganic chemistry allows students to form general theoretical knowledge necessary for the subsequent development of specialized disciplines, which contributes to the emergence of clinical thinking. Teaching these disciplines at a medical university helps students develop the qualities necessary for the further improvement of clinical thinking: observation, concentration, focus, creativity, memory and intuition.
