Global Family Doctor has had four medical editors.

Wes Fabb began as Medical Editor since the inception of Global Family Doctor in 2001 and held this role until he retired in July 2007 at the Wonca World Conference Singapore. Stephen Wilkinson joined him in 2004, Jim Vause in 2005 and Linda French in early 2007.


The editor team scan the contents of over 200 family medicine, general and specialist online journals for articles relevant to family doctors.

Over 5,000 article titles are scanned each month.

Interesting articles describing clinical, epidemiological and health services research are summarized into items in Journal Watch, and reviews of topics relevant to family doctors are featured in Clinical Reviews.
