Family practitioners, Pediatricians, Internists, Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants in Family Medicine and General Practitioners (if there are any still alive) all perform complete physical exams but most any doctor can do this if need be.

Your family doctor or general practitioner can perform the physical examination.

General practitioner also known as your family doctor.

Your family doctor does physicals. You should be having one done every year from about middle school on.

any of them can do a thorough physical...usually internists or general practicitioners or family practice doctors do general physicals and specialists do more of a specific focus to a physical (ie eye doctor looks at eyes, ear doctor looks at ears, etc)

Yes, a family doctor or general practitoner will usually give a physical, but any M.D. can.

Family physicians will give you a physical.

actually any physician can do one, it is just do they feel comfortable doing one...
but generally a GP or FP will do it...
good luck
