Canadian view of British general practice.

Before embarking on this exchange venture in British general practice I had many preconceived impressions of what it might be like to be an English family physician. Early in my five months of group practice it became apparent that many of my attitudes had no real basis and in fact I had to admit many aspects of the British health system were indeed superior. It has been my impression that a group general practice in Great Britain can certainly afford the practising family doctor a stimulating and rewarding professional and social life.
