What is internal medicine?
Internal medicine is a type of primary care where providers offer comprehensive care to adults ages 18+. These providers, also called internists, are especially equipped for treating people with chronic medical conditions or complex health issues. However, they can serve as a primary care provider for healthy individuals with minimal issues as well.
When do I see my internal medicine provider?
You can see them whenever you need to! Often, people see their internal medicine provider at least once a year for an annual physical or check-up. This is a great strategy for staying up to date with immunizations and preventive screenings. Plus, they can help manage your medications and chronic issues like diabetes.
