The Yasmed Medical Center’s family medicine, or general practitioner department is committed to offering complete healthcare to individuals and families of all ages, including preventative medical care services, acute and chronic medical condition diagnosis, and treatment. It is sometimes referred to as “general practice” or “primary care.” We offer screening tests, regular checks, illness prevention and treatment plans, vaccinations, including travel advice, vaccines for children, and risk assessments for health conditions. We want to build a long-lasting doctor-patient connection, and we’ll make sure you and your family get consistent care.

A comprehensive range of services, such as routine check-ups, immunizations, screenings, and diagnostic tests, is offered by our family physicians, who are educated to care for patients of all ages and genders. Chronic illnesses like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease are also managed by them. In addition, they offer treatment for serious ailments and injuries like the flu, the common cold, and broken bones.

Family medicine has a strong emphasis on treating the whole person rather than simply their illness or condition, which is one of its fundamental concepts. In order to provide the best possible care, family doctors consider a patient’s physical, psychological, social, and cultural characteristics. This approach is essential for locating and treating the underlying causes of illness as well as encouraging optimal health and wellbeing.

One of the notable characteristics of general practitioners is their emphasis on the patient-doctor interaction. GPs spend the necessary time getting to know their patients, learning about their medical background and way of life, and collaborating with them to create personalised treatment programs. Our GPs closely collaborate with their patients to monitor and manage their symptoms. They coordinate care with other healthcare providers to treat chronic diseases.

GPs play an important role in the delivery of mental health care. They are trained to offer counselling, support, and referrals to specialised mental health services when necessary and are frequently the initial point of contact for patients with mental health difficulties. GPs have additional training in treating individuals with addiction problems.

The GP’s responsibility also includes providing preventative care. GPs collaborate with their patients to identify and lower risk factors for chronic diseases, including cancer and heart disease. Additionally, they offer routine examinations and screenings to find health issues early, when they are most treatable. GPs are vital members of the community as well. They frequently participate in public health projects and try to increase underserved people’s access to healthcare. Through outreach and education, they also strive to encourage healthy living and avoid illness.
