Abstract
Background: imparting medical education is a challenge as much as it is a privilege. While traditional approaches of teaching medicine are absolutely essential and detrimental to the quality of medical professionals produced, the newer, evidence based approach is changing the way treatments are being planned in the healthcare sector.
Purpose: this short communication highlights the evolution of evidence based medicine and discusses the importance of incorporating evidence into modern medical decision making.
