What is Internal Medicine?

Internal Medicine is a field dedicated to the prevention and treatment of diseases seen in adults.  Internal Medicine doctors provide primary medical care to adult patients throughout their lifetimes.  They see patients during regular (typically annual) wellness physical exams, in which the patient's current health is assessed and wellness guidance is provided, and sick visits, in which the physician diagnoses illness and underlying medical conditions, referring the patient to a specialist when necessary.
