The quarterly journal FAMILY MEDICINE & PRIMARY CARE REVIEW (ISSN 1734-3402, eISSN 2449-8580) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, open to researchers in family medicine, primary care and related fields, academic teachers, general practitioners/family doctors, and other primary health care professionals, as well as physicians-in-training, residents and medical students. The journal is also addressed to those who carry out experimental and epidemiological research in other disciplines. Our mission is to lay the foundations for cooperation and an exchange of ideas, information and experience in family medicine/primary care that could involve all of Central and Eastern Europe. This region lacks a journal dedicated to communities of scholars and professionals in these branches of medicine. Currently, the journal is indexed in the following: Emerging Sources Citation Index (Web of Science, Clarivate Analytics), EBSCO, Central European Journal of Social Sciences and Humanities, DOAJ, EMBASE/Excerpta Medica, International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE), MOST Wiedzy, Ministry of Science and Higher Education, Polish Medical Bibliography, Polish Scholarly Bibliography, Scopus, Ulrich's International Periodicals Directory, WorldCat.
