General Practitioner
GPs are primary doctors. Through them, you can have yearly checkups, treat a variety of conditions, have minor surgery and get referred to specialists.
This is the first pillar for any health network and is responsible for giving the early presumptive diagnosis and referring the patient if required.
General practitioners can diagnose and treat almost all the most common pathologies. GPs oversee assisting nearly 85% of the population with some health problems.
GPs are required to have general knowledge about almost all health-related topics if they are not surgical. He is a specialist who can guide your diagnosis very well and treat you entirely or refer you to the place you need (such as, for example, another specialist doctor).
Establishing a relationship with your GP is essential; this allows you to build confidence and trust that will help you to talk openly about health issues and concerns. Also, a GP knows about your medications, allergies, surgeries, scheduled tests, and results. They work with specialists to support your treatment and care plan.
