General Physician

A general physician, also known as a general practitioner (GP) or primary care physician, is a medical doctor who provides a wide range of healthcare services to people of all ages. They are often the first point of contact for patients seeking medical attention for non-emergency conditions. General physicians have a broad knowledge of various medical conditions and are trained to diagnose, treat, and manage a variety of illnesses and diseases.

• Diagnosing and treating common illnesses: General physicians can manage conditions such as infections, flu, colds, diabetes, hypertension, and more.
• Preventive care: They provide routine check-ups, immunizations, health screenings, and lifestyle advice to prevent illness.
• Managing chronic diseases: They help patients manage long-term conditions such as asthma, diabetes, and heart disease.
• Referrals to specialists: If a condition requires more specialized care, general physicians refer patients to specialists such as cardiologists, neurologists, or surgeons.
