Questions & Answers about Сімейний лікар написав направлення на аналіз крові.
Yes. Сімейний лікар literally means family doctor, and in practice it is the usual Ukrainian term for a general practitioner / primary care doctor.
- сімейний = family-related, family
- лікар = doctor
So this is the doctor you normally register with for general medical care.
Because сімейний agrees with лікар in:
- gender: masculine
- number: singular
- case: nominative
Here сімейний лікар is the subject of the sentence, so it is in the nominative case.
If the form changed, the adjective would change too. For example:
- сімейного лікаря = the family doctor (accusative/genitive form)
- сімейним лікарем = by/with the family doctor (instrumental)
