A primary care physician looks after the whole family's health: routine checkups, common illnesses, and first contact for any new symptom. See one for a general checkup, a minor illness, or when you're not sure which specialist to see.

A primary care physician has broad training to diagnose and treat most common health problems, and to recognize when a case needs a specialist.
They're usually the first doctor you see, both for preventive checkups and for new symptoms you're not sure how to categorize.
The physician reviews your health history and current symptoms and performs a general physical exam.
If your case is straightforward, they can treat it directly; if it needs testing or a specialist, they'll explain the next step and who to see.
This is a good starting point when you don't have a clear symptom pointing to a specific specialty, or for a routine checkup — including a one-time visit while traveling.
