Internal Medicine is a field that involves the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment for a variety of adult diseases. Doctors in this field aren’t surgeons and don’t perform invasive procedures. They check a patient’s medical history, study their symptoms, perform laboratory diagnosis, and then determine the root cause of an ailment.
Their treatment often involves medication, therapy, or lifestyle changes. In extreme cases, doctors in Internal Medicine will recommend surgery and direct you towards a competent professional capable of addressing the health concern.
What is Internal Medicine?
Doctors in Internal Medical are often considered general physicians because of their ability to handle various every day and complex illnesses. Professionals provide primary care and can offer treatment for common and complex conditions. Some internists will assist other medical professionals with specializations to ensure patients get complete care and don’t have to contact multiple clinics for their health concerns.
This is a vast, diverse realm of medicine with several sub-specialties. Some doctors only specialize in internal medicine while others choose to add to another skill. These specializations include Pulmonology, Endocrinology, Cardiology, Gastroenterology, Hepatology, Oncology, Nephrology, Rheumatology, Immunology, Geriatrics, and Infectious Disease. These specializations are earned through two or three-year fellowships in a recognized medical institution.
