About Family Medicine:
The specialty of Family Medicine is centered on lasting, caring
relationships with patients and their families. Family physicians
are patient-centered and integrate the biological, clinical, and behavioral
sciences to provide continuing and comprehensive health care. The
scope of practice encompasses all ages, both sexes, each organ system,
every disease entity, and every location of practice including hospital
practice. Wayne State University family physicians evaluate their
patients' needs, taking into account family, social, ethical, and
environmental considerations. They are dedicated to the prevention
and resolution or stabilization of health problems to improve people's
