What is General Practitioner?
The term general practitioner describes the extensive area of responsibility of the general practitioner very aptly. Patients see the specialist in general medicine as the first and primary point of contact for all illnesses and questions about health. Who does not know it? As soon as you feel sick or need medical advice, the first thing you should do is go to your family doctor. The
primary doctor principle even provides that you always visit your family doctor first before you visit a specialist.
As part of the consultation with the doctor, the so-called anamnesis , the general practitioner asks about the patient’s state of health. The general practitioner often treats and cares for patients he has known for a long time, often even through families over several generations. In addition to the necessary professional competence, this gives him a special role as a confidant. In many cases, this also makes diagnosis easier for the family doctor.
In addition to treating illnesses, the general practitioner specializes in preventive care, such as vaccinations and nutritional advice. In addition, he accompanies patients in their rehabilitation phase after hospital treatment or serious illness.
In the case of special illnesses that require specialist knowledge in a certain area, the general practitioner refers his patients to the relevant specialist for further treatment or differential diagnosis. The general practitioner is also responsible for collating all of a patient’s medically important data and works closely with all facilities and institutions that are important for the patient’s health.
What does a general practitioner do?
An examination by the family doctor always begins with the so-called anamnesis. The general practitioner asks the person concerned in detail about their health problems. If the patient is already known, he arranges the information in the medical context or his individual medical history.
The general practitioner also uses the following examination methods: Physical examination Blood pressure measurement Pulse measurement Blood test Electrocardiogram (EKG) Pulmonary function test Ultrasound examination (sonography) Doppler sonographs Infusion and transfusion therapy Medical checkups
