They may also work in hospitals or urgent care facilities, often collaborating with other healthcare professionals. The environment is generally fast-paced, requiring strong communication skills and the ability to manage a diverse range of patient needs, from routine check-ups to chronic disease management. Family physicians often build long-term relationships with patients, fostering a supportive and community-oriented atmosphere.
