What is a doctor of Internal Medicine (Internist)?
This is a specialty of medicine that treats adult patients 18 and older throughout their lifetime. Internists are involved in coordinating your care among specialists. They provide a unique, comprehensive approach to all your health care problems. I do not deliver babies or treat children, and I do not perform surgery. However, I do perform preventative health advice, cardiac risk assessment, exercise stress testing, pulmonary function testing and dermatology procedures.
