A general practitioner (GP) is a primary care physician who provides comprehensive medical care to patients of all ages. GPs play a vital role in healthcare systems worldwide, serving as the first point of contact for patients with a wide range of medical concerns.
They are trained in various fields, including internal medicine, pediatrics, gynecology, and psychiatry, enabling them to diagnose and manage a diverse array of health issues. GPs excel in conducting physical examinations, assessing medical histories, ordering and interpreting diagnostic tests, and providing appropriate treatment plans.
They emphasize preventive care, health promotion, and disease management, fostering long-term doctor-patient relationships built on trust and continuity of care. GPs also coordinate referrals to specialists when necessary, ensuring patients receive comprehensive and coordinated healthcare services. Their dedication, knowledge, and compassion make them invaluable frontline healthcare providers in communities.
