The current stage of development of the national society is characterized by constant active changes affecting modernization with the subsequent development and improvement of higher and post-higher education, pre-education with the simultaneous development and improvement of the unified educational space in the process of implementing current federal state educational standards. This makes it necessary to review both approaches to foreign language education as a whole and the pedagogical conditions for its implementation using the example of individual academic disciplines, in particular, the issues of effective language training for future doctors. The demands of society and the order of the state in the training of future doctors who are capable and ready to communicate in a foreign language in the field of solving communicative tasks in the professional field of activity sharpen our attention to the design and implementation of pedagogical support for the formation of foreign language professional communication skills among future doctors. The purpose of this work is to select and develop material for the organization of pedagogical support for the formation of foreign language professional communication skills among future doctors. The normative documents in the field of education and science are analyzed, the domestic and foreign pedagogical experience of the educational process in a foreign language is studied. The basic components of pedagogical support for the formation of foreign language professional communication skills among future doctors (normative, didactic, technological, resource-based) are revealed and the didactic one is disclosed. The theoretical significance of the research lies in enriching the theory and methodology of teaching a foreign language by arguing the use of various types of exercises as a fundamental element of the didactic component of pedagogical support for the formation of foreign language professional communication skills among future doctors. The scientific novelty and significance of the research consists in the systematization of methods of actions organized into preparatory, reproductive and productive types of exercises for the assimilation of communicative and linguistic material in the formation of skills of foreign-language professional communication among future doctors.
