Foreword


Dr. Resmi S. Kaimal

“What have you specialised in?”

“Family Medicine”

“What is that?”

This is not a conversation between a doctor and a layman, but between two doctors. It is sad that the public knows who a cardiologist or a neurologist or a vascular surgeon is, but has little idea who a family physician or a family medicine specialist is. What is even worse is that, our colleagues from other specialities are also ignorant of this much needed branch of medicine.

This book,“Insights : Family practice and Primary care” is a collection of articles and stories from family physicians across the country. Hope the scientific content of this book inspires primary care physicians to strive for excellence in their journey. Also, the anecdotes by family physicians will give a clear idea of Family Medicine to the medical fraternity.

AFPI Kerala Chapter is proud to be associated with this priceless work and congratulates Dr. Anoop for conceiving this idea and bringing out the best from Family Medicine and Primary Care in India. We hope to continue this in the years to come.
