What’s an Internal Medicine Doctor?
Internal medicine doctors, or internists, provide long-term prevention, diagnosis, and treatment for adult diseases, illnesses, and injuries. Internists are similar to a family medicine provider, but they have advanced training in managing complex and multiple conditions for adults.
You can choose an internal medicine doctor for care, even if you don’t have a chronic disease or condition. Your doctor can help you stay healthy with:
- Routine checkups
- Health education to reduce your risk of chronic disease
- Preventive screenings
