The Factbook is ABFM’s interactive, data-driven resource built on years of longitudinal survey data collected directly from Diplomates. It offers a detailed look at who family physicians are, where they practice, how their practices are organized, and how the specialty continues to evolve within a changing health care landscape. With this second edition, the Factbook has grown into an even more robust tool, featuring dynamic tables, infographics, and downloadable figures that make the data easier than ever to explore.

In this episode of The ABFM Podcast, Dr. Gary LeRoy, ABFM Senior Vice President of Diplomate Experience, sits down with Dr. Andrea Anderson, a family physician and professor at The George Washington School of Medicine and Health Sciences. Dr. Anderson explains  how reliable data can strengthen family medicine, support advocacy and workforce planning, inform policy discussions, and deepen our understanding of the specialty’s breadth and impact.
