A family medicine provider is concerned with the total health care of the individual and the family. Providers are trained to diagnose and treat a wide variety of ailments in patients of all ages. Special emphasis is placed on prevention and the primary care of entire families. This includes utilizing consultations and community resources. More patient visits are made to family physicians than to any other type of physician.
All board-certified family physicians have completed a three-year internship and residency program, which includes training in pediatrics, internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, surgery, psychiatry, geriatrics and community medicine. This provides them with the ability to treat nearly 95 percent of all illnesses. Your family physician is also concerned about preventative medicine; this means being just as interested in keeping you healthy as in getting you well.
