Relationship between the family physician and obstetrician.
Obstetrical care is an integral part of family practice. The role of the obstetrician is that of consultant for high risk patients and obstetrical complications. The quality of obstetrical care is enhanced if the obstetrician confines his work to his role as consultant. Suggestions are made how to fit the nurse-midwife into the obstetrical health care team.
