Abstract: The main goal of our review was to discuss the roles of family physicians in management of Gastrointestinal (GI) diseases, we intended to review the management of the most common malignant and benign GI disorders. Literature review was performed using biomedical databases; Medline, and Embase, and Google scholar. We search English published studies concerning management of Gastrointestinal (GI) diseases in family practice up to August, 2017. It is well known that GI conditions prevail as a whole practice, as well as the PCP has a central function in the medical diagnosis and also the management of those issues in the primary care setting. Although nationwide as well as worldwide proper evidence-based criteria are available, a significant variety of PCPs does not consistently follow them. This evaluation shows a wide range of understanding and application of guidelines worrying GI disorders amongst PCPs worldwide. Management of GERD could include a way of living modification, clinical therapy and also medical treatment. The way of life adjustments including fat burning and/or head of a bed altitude have been revealed to improve esophageal pH and/or GERD signs. IBD is a challenging illness, as well as very early diagnosis, represents a real difficulty for PCPs. Tracking patients with IBD is also an important function thought by PCPs. In order to react appropriately to these difficulties, PCPs are invited to show their analytical skills in the very early discovery of regressions, their ability to supply constant sustaining therapies, as well as their ability to collaborate patient care as given by a multidisciplinary group.
