What’s the Difference Between a Primary Care Physician and a Specialist?

Primary care physicians (PCPs) and specialists play different but complementary roles in healthcare. A PCP handles general health needs, including routine exams, preventive care, and chronic disease management. When a condition requires advanced expertise, the PCP will refer you to a specialist who focuses on a specific area, such as cardiology or dermatology. At Harmony Clinic in Deltona, FL, our primary care team coordinates with specialists as needed, ensuring seamless and comprehensive care for every patient.
