Can your primary care physician be a cardiologist?

Some specialists do primary care. Usually they take the role for people whose main concern is in their area of interest. Some, especially when first starting out, will do primary care to supplement their practice and plan to phase it out as they get busier in their specialty. As a personal perspective I often find it interesting that they would scoff at the idea of a primary care doc doing their job but yet insist that they can do the primary care just as well as people who specialize in that. If the doctor really was interested in primary care and wanted to do it he would have been a primary care physican. My personal advice it to get your primary care from a doc who finds it interesting and actually wants to do it.
