What Does an Internist Do?

Think of an internist as the quarterback for adult health; the doctor who sees the whole field. Our physicians diagnose and treat everything from a stubborn cough to complex, multi-system issues like diabetes with kidney disease. They order age-appropriate screenings, keep vaccines current, review every medication for interactions, and loop in specialists when a heart, lung, or GI concern needs extra hands. In short, they’re the primary-care partners who keep all the moving parts of adult medicine working together.

  • Annual wellness exam + age-based screenings – cancer checks, cholesterol, vaccines.

  • Chronic-condition game plans – diabetes, high blood pressure, thyroid, COPD, and more.

  • Same-day sick visits – cough, UTI, migraine; call before 10 AM, be seen today.

  • Medication safety check – reconcile every Rx and supplement to avoid dangerous interactions.

Common Conditions We Treat

How Your Visit Works—Step by Step

Book & Prep

Call to book an appointment; complete the short portal intake so we can review meds and past labs before you arrive.

Unrushed Exam

A 30-minute consult to cover today’s concerns, review screenings, and set goals—plus in-office labs or EKG if needed.

Results & Follow-Up

Lab results hit your portal within two business days, and your doctor messages you with next steps or adjusts meds—no guessing.

Whether it’s a routine physical or a complex chronic-disease check, our process is designed to save you time and keep surprises to a minimum. Online forms cut paperwork, in-house tests mean fewer extra appointments, and secure portal messaging lets you ask follow-up questions without phone tag.

FAQ About Internal Medicine

Do I still need an internist if I’m healthy?

Absolutely Yes. A yearly visit gives us a chance to spot quiet problems like high cholesterol, early insulin resistance, or vitamin gaps before they cause trouble. You leave with updated vaccines, a clear plan for the coming year, and peace of mind.

How is internal medicine different from family medicine?

Internal medicine zeroes in on adult bodies and the way multiple conditions interact. Family doctors care for every age group. If you are eighteen or older and juggling complex issues, an internist offers deeper adult-specific expertise.

Can you manage my diabetes and thyroid in the same visit?

Yes. One visit covers both problems. We draw a single set of labs, walk through your A1C, TSH, medications, and daily habits, and build a coordinated plan. If any result needs closer attention we schedule a quick follow-up so adjustments happen without delay.

What insurance plans do you accept?

We work with Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Medicare, and most local employer plans. Unsure about your coverage? Send a photo of your card through the portal or call the billing team before you book.

How long will lab results take?

Most routine labs come back in one to two business days. As soon as the numbers post, your doctor reviews them, sends a summary through the portal, and outlines any next steps. No waiting for a phone call that never comes.

What if I need a specialist?

When a heart, lung, or digestive issue needs extra hands, we send an electronic referral, share your records, and stay in the loop on every consult note. You focus on getting better while we coordinate the details.
