Answer:

Specialists are doctors who have advanced training and degrees in a particular branch of medicine. A primary care physician is a specialist in family medicine, general internal medicine or general pediatrics who provides definitive care to the undifferentiated patient at the point of first contact, and takes continuing responsibility for providing the patient's comprehensive care.
