The lack of meaningful interaction and sufficient time for primary care is eroding the doctorpatient relationship. Patients suffer when doctors must see so many of them.

Once the physician sees them, the patient’s chief complaint will be addressed quickly, and the patient will be sent on his or her way. http://privatepracticedirect.com/benefits-direct-primary-c/
