Department of Internal Medicine
Internal Medicine is one of the most comprehensive branches of medicine, focusing on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases that affect adults’ internal organs. Internal medicine specialists (internists) offer expert care for a variety of conditions, including chronic and complex illnesses like heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, respiratory illnesses, and infectious diseases.
Internal medicine doctors are considered the cornerstone of adult medical care and often called doctor’s doctor, as they coordinate with other specialists, treat a variety of overlapping conditions and, in complex cases, serve as reliable consultants. Internists offer individual evidence-based care to adults of all ages in acute diseases, long-term disease management, and preventive care.
