Read More About AFP’s Past, Present, and Future: This article is part of a yearlong series written by the editors of AFP to commemorate the journal’s 75th anniversary. 

More than a journal, American Family Physician (AFP) celebrates community and connection among family physicians and those we serve. We are honored to help patients directly and indirectly by providing our readers with high-quality educational content to inform clinical practice. As our 75th anniversary year comes to a close, we acknowledge the dedicated team of medical and professional editors, designers, and illustrators who bring AFP to life across our print and digital channels. Many on the team have contributed to AFP for more than 25 years, and one, our talented art coordinator Dave Klemm, has been creating AFP art for more than 40 years. The feedback we receive from family physicians guides our efforts and reminds us why we do this important work.

“I am so grateful for your hard work and dedication to providing practitioners like myself with easy to understand, practical articles … I have learned so much from you, and my patients have good outcomes in part because of you.”

“Hi, my name is Thalita, I’m from Brazil. I’m a family physician, and I was looking for a podcast in English to listen to while driving to work. You have the best podcast about medicine I’ve ever heard. I listen to it every day! Congratulations for this amazing work!”

“Dude, [AFP] is so legit. Don’t know who their editors are, but all groups could learn from them.”

“Que orgullo escucharlos!!! Amo su pasión por seguir conquistando pasos agigantados!!!”

“I enjoy the distillation of knowledge that pertains to the work I do every day. It has to do with trust. I really do not have time to read original articles and original research and decide if the study was well done or not.”

“The staff and residents do a wonderful job. I just finished listening to every single recorded episode and … the quality continues to improve. This is my go-to podcast for medicine. I’m currently a senior family medicine resident outside Pittsburgh. Thanks for all you do. Keep up the good work.”
