Writer's picture: Samantha Mekhail Von InsSamantha Mekhail Von Ins

A primary care physician (PCP) is a healthcare professional who serves as the first point of contact for patients seeking medical care. Their role is to provide comprehensive, ongoing care for individuals and families, and to coordinate care with other healthcare providers as needed.


Some of the key responsibilities of a primary care physician include:

  • Conducting regular physical exams and screenings

  • Diagnosing and treating common illnesses and injuries

  • Managing chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension

  • Prescribing medication and providing guidance on lifestyle changes to improve overall health

  • Referring patients to specialists as needed

  • Providing preventive care, such as vaccinations and cancer screenings

  • Coordinating care with other healthcare providers, such as specialists, nurses, and physical therapists



In addition to these responsibilities, primary care physicians also play a critical role in helping patients navigate the healthcare system and understand their options for treatment. They also serve as advocates for their patients, working to ensure that they receive the care they need in a timely and appropriate manner.


Overall, the role of a primary care physician is to provide comprehensive, ongoing care for patients and to serve as the primary point of contact for all aspects of their healthcare. This includes not only treating illnesses and injuries, but also promoting health and wellness, and helping patients navigate the healthcare system.
