Primary Care Services for Adults

An internal medicine specialists (or internist) is a primary care provider who specializes in medical care for adult patients ages 18 and up. Internal medicine specialists provide primary healthcare to patients seeking to maintain optimal health, as well as patients with all types of acute and chronic health issues. There are many medical conditions that occur almost exclusively in adults, so working with an internist can be beneficial for individuals who need more specialized care than what a family doctor can provide.

Some people choose an internist for their primary care provider if they suffer from the following conditions:

• Diabetes
• High blood pressure
• Heart disease
• Arthritis
• Kidney disease
• Cancer
• Asthma
