80% of health care needs in any nation can be taken care of by the family physician. These days everyone in India wants to be treated by the specialist since a lot of them have disposable incomes to go doctor shopping. To a layperson, it might seem like the most correct thing to do and may feel that super-specialist is very accomplished hence also the most capable to treat his disease.
People don't realize the importance of a general practitioner or family physician in their healthcare. This would discourage new medical professionals from taking up family medicine. It is just not viable for them.
Family physicians are not average doctors as people would like to think. They have a different set of skills than a sub specialist. While a sub specialist is restricted to a very narrow field of medicine the FP is trained to look at the patient as a whole.
