What are Family Doctors?

A family practitioner is a physician who specializes in caring for the health concerns of people of all ages.

When necessary, family practitioners will provide referrals for conditions that require the expertise of another specialist.

The doctors may also provide physicals, inoculations, prenatal care, treat chronic diseases, like diabetes and asthma, and provide advice on disease prevention.
