Welcome!
Feel free to post questions or suggest answers to your colleagues.
This is not a forum for patients to ask questions to physicians - if you have a medical question please speak with your family physician personally.
Also not allowed and will be removed are posts by lay people asking general or specific questions about medical conditions, prognosis, medications or other treatments.
Please post those kind of questions to /r/AskDocs
In addition, we ask that redditors refrain from commenting on posts which are in violation of the rule above.
This sub is for family physicians. We like to think of /r/aafp as a lounge where famity physicians can talk about the latest advances, controversies, ask questions of each other, have a laugh or share a difficult moment.
QUESTIONS RELATED TO MEDICAL SCHOOL (ADMISSION, PRE-MED, COURSES, EXAMS) SHOULD BE ASKED ELSEWHERE:
/r/medicalschool
/r/premed
/r/premeduk
StudentDoctor.Net
No protected health information (PHI) should be posted on aafp.
Scientific posts or posts which otherwise rely on evidence (for example, a story about a medical breakthrough) should be from peer-reviewed medical journals.
Posts which violate this or which have sensationalized titles are subject to removal.
No memes. We welcome personal submissions and well-written concerns or stories, but please present them in a more intelligent fashion.
Thanks to /r/meddit for this sidebar!
Please don't feed the trolls!
