Dr Rafet Jhameel - 
5  Ways to Become 
a  Family Medicine 
 Practitioner
1.  Believe in Yourself
Dr Rafet Jhameel says, the most successful 
family physicians are  those who have 
faith in their medical  knowledge, patient 
care skills, and their  own intuition.  It 
can be helpful to keep a  journal of 
accomplishments to help boost  self-
confidence and remind yourself of the  
progress you’ve made.
2. Enjoy What You Do
As a family practitioner, it is important to 
enjoy  what you do.  By enjoying your work,  
you will  be able to provide better care for 
your  patients.  Find activities that make 
your job  more enjoyable, such as helping to 
organize  health fairs or leading support 
groups.
3. Be a Good Communicator
A great way to practice these skills is by 
having  mock conversations with a family 
member or  friend, as well as engaging in 
active listening.
Good communication skills are essential for 
any  successful family medicine 
practitioner.
4. Delegate
Delegation is an important skill for any successful family medicine physician. It’s important to know  
how to delegate tasks and when it’s appropriate to do so. You should be able to differentiate between  
tasks that can and should be delegated, and those that must remain in your control. It’s important to 
be  able to assign tasks to appropriate people in order to reduce the workload for yourself and your 
staff.
5. Get Organized
To get organized, start by creating a daily or 
weekly  calendar that allows you to visualize 
your tasks and  commitments. Make sure to 
plan for unexpected  changes in your routine 
and create buffers between  appointments. 
Additionally, use technology to help  you 
organize and streamline your practice.
