A GP’s perspective on how AI is transforming healthcare

In today’s fast-paced healthcare environment, general practitioners (GPs) are at the frontline, managing complex patient needs and vast amounts of information. Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a powerful partner, helping GPs navigate these challenges with greater precision and efficiency.

Drawing from his dual expertise in clinical practice and health technology, Dr. Goyal details how AI can support GPs by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, streamlining workflows, and enabling more personalized patient care. 

Dr. Goyal emphasizes that rather than replacing the vital role of clinicians, AI acts as a tool to empower GPs, with the potential to enhance diagnostic support, clinical knowledge, and provide administrative relief.
