This program opens with a clip of what looks like an old movie—a doctor making a house call. While house calls may be ancient history, the emphasis is swinging back to family practice. The program details the function of such a one-stop approach to medicine: one doctor treating an entire family; a base for preventive care, including regular checkups; and a source of referrals to specialists when necessary.
