Family medicine has the potential to impact not just a single person, but their entire family as well. It can help them understand the importance of preventive health care, healthy eating and healthy habits in general. A family medicine doctor needs to be able to hear the needs of their patients. Sometimes all people need is to be heard.

I would say the best skill a primary care provider could have is being somebody who's caring, compassionate and having the ability to listen. I think the main thing in primary care a lot of times is people just wanting to feel heard, that their problems matter and that somebody wants to do something and help them get better.
