Family medicine is a medical specialty focused on providing comprehensive and continuous care to individuals and families. It encompasses the diagnosis, treatment, and management of a wide range of conditions and diseases across all age groups.
Family physicians emphasize preventive care, health education, and the management of chronic conditions, aiming to treat the whole person rather than just specific illnesses or symptoms. They often serve as the primary care provider and coordinate care with specialists when necessary. The field is known for its broad scope, including care for children, adults, and the elderly, and for its emphasis on building long-term relationships with patients.
