title: Diagnosing and treating depression in primary care patients: looking beyond physical complaints.
abstract: Depression is common, but often overlooked because patients with depression often present with somatic complaints rather than psychological ones. Primary care physicians must learn to recognize depression and be thoroughly familiar with its treatment, because this disease is common and serious.
