    Family medicine practices differ between Western and Eastern cultures. In Western cultures, the focus is more on the individual patient, their medical issues, and treatment options. Meanwhile, Eastern medical practices take a more holistic approach by considering the patient's overall well-being, family relationships, and lifestyle/environmental factors that could impact their health. Both approaches have value but an ideal system may incorporate elements of each to provide the most comprehensive care for patients.
