general practitioner definition and meaning

Who is a "general practitioner"?

A general practitioner, often referred to as a GP, is a medical doctor who provides basic healthcare services to individuals and families. GPs are usually the first people patients go to when seeking medical care and play a crucial role in diagnosing and treating a wide range of health issues. They provide routine check-ups, manage chronic conditions, and offer preventive care, such as vaccinations and health screenings. GPs also help patients connect with specialists when needed and provide ongoing support and guidance to their patients to help them maintain good health and well-being.
