Frequent attenders--a review.

Abstract

Frequent attenders form a distinct group in any general or family practice. The physical, psychological and social factors associated with frequent attendance together with the means used for their identification are reviewed. The need for an approach which takes all these factors into account in order to best care for the patient's health is stressed.
