Why do doctors think they can't treat you without family history?!


Question:

Why do doctors think they can't treat you without family history?

i want to see a doctor for my own body not what about my family ailments.


Answers:

Family history serves as a short cut sometimes for the doctor. For example: if heart problems are common in your family, then your doctor will focus strongly in those areas for problems.
