I enjoy seeing their smiling faces when they feel well taken care of. In your opinion, what should be the role of a primary care provider for a patient, taking into account both physical health and behavioral health needs? The role of a primary care provider is making sure patients are up to date with routine health screenings and preventative care in addition to making sure they are enjoying life mentally and physically.
