Dedication
The first edition of this text was dedicated to my family. Grandma Rose helped awaken my curiosity in medicine and my parents supported it. My wife Kay and my children, Stacey, Matthew, and Dana provided the encouragement that was needed to persist and complete the book itself.
The second edition was dedicated to all my colleagues in family practice here in Midland who were so gracious in covering call for me during my travels and while writing.
As this third edition is published, medicine is in turmoil. We are trying to find direction. Our care is being driven by evidence-based medicine. A cost-effective approach to provide that care is of paramount importance. Finding a way to enable care for all and determining methods to support the aging population have gained center stage importance. With this in mind, this third edition is dedicated then to my two grandsons, Daniel and Ryan Maura. They are the future. They and their generation will need to pull and mold the best of the past to create a new world of healthcare to address these issues. It is for them that we strive to do our best. It will take their best to allow us to continue to provide the highest quality of medical care in the world.

John L. Pfenninger, MD
As they should be, the first and second editions were dedicated to our families, friends, and colleagues. They both inspired and tolerated us through this process, again and again. Likewise, this edition is dedicated to them.
This edition is also dedicated to primary care clinicians everywhere who have endured practicing in our current healthcare system; all of us know what that means and it has not always been nurturing and supportive. As we continue to endure, adapt, and persevere, this book is dedicated to those who continue to do the right thing, what’s best for our patients, their families, our profession, and the healthcare system. Even though future healthcare systems are likely to be more complicated, new technologies and procedures will evolve that can keep it fun and exciting. And my prediction persists that patient outcomes and satisfaction as well as healthcare systems will be enhanced when as many procedures as possible are provided by primary care clinicians.
