Abstract
Background: MBBS internship is the best year in the entire curriculum and the best thing that ever happens.

Aims and Objectives: (1) Evaluation of the quality of internship program provided to interns in Government Doon Medical College and Hospital and (2) to assess the level of satisfaction among interns related to their learning.

Materials and Methods: The participants of this study were the batch 2016 cohorts of Government Doon Medical College, first batch who had completed their internship. A questionnaire containing multiple-choice answers was designed using Google Forms to assess their feedback. The questionnaire was allotted to the interns, by batch 2016 two MBBS graduates who completed their internship recently. The answers in Google Forms ticked were collected by them, and the data entered in an Excel sheet were represented in pie charts and bar charts and the average percentage was calculated for the degree of learning. A subjective assessment was made based on the findings.

Results: All interns felt internship as useful. 52% of interns on average learned and acquired all the important skills in all the departments (medicine, surgery, obstetrics/gynecology, orthopedics, pediatrics, emergency, etc.), on average 40.8% were able to perform all the skills of every discipline seeking assistance, 17.6% learned all the skills but were not confident, and 9.8% of students learned nothing. 100% of interns learned all communication skills regarding doctor–patient interaction and ethical behavior among colleagues, seniors, and paramedical staff.

Conclusion: Internship program in Government Doon Medical College and Hospital provides lucrative learning to young interns. Majority of interns felt satisfied with the internship, but some improvements can also be done to cover the lack.
