"Family/general practice" VS "primary care"

[sk6699]

What is the difference between a PA who's in "Family/general practice" VS "primary care"?

[DiggySRNA]

I might be off and hopefully someone correct me but isn't Primary Care an umbrella term that encompasses; General Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, and Family Medicine?

Multiple specialties fall into primary care, and the generally accepted definition is someone you would go see first for care but may refer to another specialty if outside their expertise. FM, IM, OB, peds. Generalist is any specialty that will do the work of multiple other specialties, like FM, IM, peds are the typical ones people think of. I would add EM into that, but there is not set definition like there is for primary care.
