The Primary Care Dilemma: A Medical Resident’s Perspective

"The first doctor we get to know, the doctor who treats the whole family, and the one we want to be like is our PCP (primary care provider). The current generation of residents can relate to the family doctor who always answered our phone calls day or night, patiently addressed our concerns, greeted us warmly during our clinic visits, and attended our major family events."
