The Medical Identity (MI) is a dynamic social construction and is influenced by factors related to the student, the professor/preceptor and society, in addition to shaping the way the future physician will exercise his profession. The objective of this thesis is to analyze the construction of MI and the factors that influence it based on the perceptions of newly graduated physicians, in addition to carrying out a review of the current literature, researching the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that form MI, the influence of the first years of professional practice and the National Curriculum Guidelines (NCG) for Brazilian Medicine courses in the profile and consolidation of MI. A qualitative, cross-sectional observational study carried out with resident physicians at a university hospital in a large Brazilian urban center. Data were collected through twelve virtual interviews from September to November 2021 and three face-to-face focus groups, with six participants each, in August 2022. The material produced was subjected to content analysis, following the steps below: reading and fluctuating rereading, search for similarities and divergences, classification into thematic categories, spatio-social-temporal contextualization, discussion with the scientific literature and interpretative synthesis. In addition, the PubMed®/MEDLINE, SciELO, LILACS, Cochrane Library and BVS databases were searched to carry out the literature review. For the review, structuring of the theoretical foundation and discussion of the research data, the 154 articles found were studied in full. A little more than half (51%) of the articles are empirical research that focus on one of the three axes that form MI (student / teacher / society), while 40% are literature reviews and 9% are editorials. Most of the surveys (73%) were developed in the North America / Europe axis. Despite this, Brazil ranks 5th in number of publications. The material produced in the field revealed that the students' expectations regarding the doctor they imagine becoming, the influence of professors and preceptors and the profile of a doctor required by society shape the participants' MI. The first years of the professional career constitute a period of turbulence and identity conflicts that are softened during the Medical Residency Program, when it is configured as an environment of practice and healthy teaching-learning. Medical residents are unaware of the NCG and this negatively impacts the way they experience society's expectations translated by the Guidelines. In the perception of newly graduated physicians, there is an inconsistency between what is recommended in the NCG, the training that is effectively offered in medical courses and the job market that they find after being qualified to practice the profession. This incongruity generates an unhealthy MI that is harmful to the qualified exercise of the profession and generates suffering and dissatisfaction in new physicians. The results of this study can contribute to the work of those involved in the physicians' identity formation process, helping them to undertake actions that favor the formation of a healthier MI for the benefit of current and future physicians and the population they assist.
