If a fox is on your back porch, make sure the door is shut. Check other doors and windows, too. The last thing you want is a terrified wild animal dashing about your house. They tend to lose control of their bowels when they're frightened.

Next day, check your garden for food scraps to see what's attracting the fox. Do you leave pet food out? Or food for wild birds or other animals? Make sure anything like that is right out of reach of a fox; they can't climb, but they can reach up higher than you think and will frequently find ways of getting at food you hadn't thought of.

You might also have plants growing which look like fox-food to a fox.

Be certain your garbage bins are tightly closed. Wrap your food rubbish in plastic, to lessen the smell.

Above all, don't be tempted to try to make friends with the fox. They are wild creatures, and it just won't work. Even if you succeed in getting it to come to your door regularly for food, it will spread its territory to include your neighbours and, sooner or later, somebody who doesn't like foxes will spot it and set traps, or call in a pest controller.

End of fox, I'm afraid. So don't encourage it.

Can doctors get porches for free?

Yes, but only if the house they bought came with one. If they have to build a porch later, it can be expensive, especially if it's a front porch. Front porches are usually more elaborate than a back porch. The exception would be a back porch that is connected to a deck. Those can be very costly.
