 Internal Medicine

 

Internal medicine physicians, also known as internists, specialize in overseeing the overall health of adults. From annual check-ups to managing common medical conditions and diseases, they provide comprehensive care tailored to each patient. With a focus on adult medicine, internal medicine physicians undergo extensive training to diagnose and manage a wide range of long-term illnesses, including diabetes, hypertension, and chronic conditions. Leveraging their deep understanding of the body’s interconnected systems, internists collaborate closely with patients to develop personalized health plans tailored to their individual needs.

Family Medicine vs. Internal Medicine

Family Medicine and Internal Medicine are closely related specialties, each offering comprehensive care tailored to individual patient needs. While sharing many similarities, they also possess distinct focuses and approaches. Both specialties prioritize preventive medicine and are trained to diagnose and manage a wide range of medical issues.

However, Internal Medicine physicians specialize in adult patients aged 18 and above, focusing on diagnosing and managing complex conditions affecting internal systems. In contrast, Family Medicine practitioners provide care across all age groups, from newborns to seniors, emphasizing continuity of care and comprehensive health maintenance.

Despite these differences, both specialties are committed to providing skilled and compassionate care to their patients. At Vituity Family Medicine Center, rest assured that your health is always in good hands, regardless of which provider you see.
