Foreign doc here. From reading the comments here it sounds like in Singapore the Family Physicians are mostly doing comprehensive care office based practice. Often only at one location. They don't have varied practices.

Where I am, Family Physicians often work at more than one location and have varied practices. They may do 2 days a week of comprehensive care for their smaller patient panels and spend their other days doing something else eg Aesthetics, Pain Management, Mental Health, Addictions, Transgender, Women's Health, Men's Health, Palliative Care, Surgical Assist, Anesthesia, Hospitalist, ER and some other more obscure work.

Obviously a troll right.
Who call his /her/it/they practice a m.med practice.
Some sore gp or mopxer mocking m.meders.

In fact many of us serve as eye MO before, and do independent eye MO calls
Fm Mmed is a fm specialist level, cannot be compared to gdfm or mbbs leve

May not be a bad idea train everyone as MMed. No need specialists. Just pay MMed salaries MMed do everything. TKR. Cardiac Bypass. Whipples.
that is the future of family medicine.
a one stop service.
