520			_aFamily medicine is a specialization in medicine, which is concerned with the provision of comprehensive healthcare to individuals and families. Unlike other medical specialties, which are limited to the treatment of a particular disease or management of a specific organ, this field integrates care for patients across all ages, genders and diseases. This field deals with a range of diverse acute and chronic healthcare concerns. Besides the diagnosis and treatment of illness, health-risk assessments, preventive care, routine checkups, personalized counseling, and immunization and screening tests, are essential aspects of family medicine. Family physicians participate in integrated outpatient and inpatient learning in obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, psychiatry and neurology, internal medicine, community medicine and surgery. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to family medicine. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, the book makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. It attempts to assist those with a goal of delving into this field.
