Internal medicine physicians, also called “internists,” are physicians who specialize in the diagnosis, treatment and compassionate care of adults across the spectrum of health, from wellness to complex illness. At least three out of their seven years of medical school and postgraduate training are dedicated to learning how to prevent, diagnose and treat diseases that affect adults.
The physicians and Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) in our internal medicine practices work together to provide general health and preventive care, help manage chronic conditions, diagnose and coordinate care for more serious health issues, and address the issues of aging. Patients seen are generally 18 years of age or older, however some practices see patients starting at age 16.
Sick Visits
When a minor illness or injury arises, your primary care team is there for you with acute care appointments. This provides not only convenience but also continuity of care, allowing you to be seen and treated by a practitioner right within the same medical group where you already have an established history of care. Because it is billed as an office visit, it also helps you to avoid the higher cost of urgent or emergency care.
Our Integrated Network of Care
As your “Patient Centered Medical Home” (PCMH), your internal medicine physician and the rest of your primary care team also coordinate and facilitate your care throughout our system. To aid in this effort, we’ve designed our integrated system to allow your primary care team and our walk-in center, emergency department, specialists, diagnostic imaging technicians, laboratory technicians and other healthcare professionals to “talk” about your health through electronic medical records that provide instant access to your medical information. This allows your entire care team to make an informed and comprehensive evaluation of your condition and to provide top-quality care within a truly integrated and holistic approach that also eliminates errors and redundant services to help you control your healthcare costs.
