A general practice doctor is a general practitioner who diagnoses, prevents and treats the most common diseases. A general practitioner is also called a family doctor, which is due to the fact that he treats both adult patients and children and has skills not only in therapy, but also in related narrow specialties, such as: dermatology, cardiology, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, neurology.

The general practitioner is engaged in examinations of patients, treatment, diagnostics: ECG, Holter, otoscopy, rhinoscopy, laryngoscopy, visualization of the fundus, measurement of eye pressure, gynecological examination, removal of sulfur plugs. Also, the family doctor makes diagnoses and conducts treatment, although he often refers patients to narrow specialists.

The field of activity of such a doctor extends not only to one patient, but also to the health of all members of his family.

He accepts patients of all ages and understands related specialties (neurology, ENT, surgery, ophthalmology, and others).
