ly affected by the weatherman.

as a big success.

The family doctor is the usual
point of entry to the .health care
system. He can deal with an esti-
mated 75 per cent of medical, prob-
.1ems, referring to specialists those
beyond his -scope. And he looks
after the whole person - not just
the part that happens to be giving
trouble at any given time.
In other words, the family doctor
provides comprehensive and contin-
uing care to the individual patient
within the family and community
setting.
Strange then, that many people
go about choosing 'a family doctor
with less care than they would bring
to selecting .a plumber or a TV.
repairman,
HOW do you find a good family
doctor?
Dr. W Gifford-Jones, in his help-
ful book The Doctor Game, says,
"Don't expect your fingers to find
the perfect doctor by wandering
through the Yellow Pages." He also
advises that it's a good idea to find
a. family physician before you need
one.
If you're. moving to a new loca-
tion - and Canadians, on the
average, do so once every four or
five years -'ask your present doc-
tor to recommend one of his medi-
cal colleagues in the place to which
you're going.
But, if you're starting. from
scratch - ask around in your new
neighborhood. You can try the
local chapter of. the College of
Family PhysiCians, or the switch
board at the . nearest hospital. But

remember• inquire about profes-
sional' reputation. You wouldn't
choose a pluinber because he shares
your interim' in stamp collecting,
goes to. your church, .or avidly -sup-
ports the same hockey team. It's
even more important to select .a
doctor for his ability as a doctor,
.Mind you., You should try to find
a family physician you can feel
comfortable with; one you can talk
with openly and frankly.
Once you've found that doctor,
make an appointment, with him as
soon as possible, even if you're
feeling fine. This will provide an
opportunity of getting to know each
other; the doctor will place on rec-
ord your family health history, and,
when you do need medical help,
you'll be that much further 'ahead.
'Today's family 'doctor works an
average of 56 hours a week. No
matter how important your prob-
lem. may .be, your physician will
likely have about 2,000 patients on
his books, and will be seeing 30 or
more on any given day. If you want
same day service, try to phone for
an appointment as early as possible
in the morning.
While your family doctor may be
busy, he's there to. serve you. Don't
hesitate to call on him when you
really need help. And try to seek
that help as soon as possible in' the
course of an illness when treatment
may be simpler.
Responsibility for your health
rests with both you and your family'
doctor. Finding and keeping a good
physician is, one of the best invest-
ments you'll ever make.
