Internal Medicine

What is internal medicine?

Internal medicine is a field of medical care that diagnoses and treats a wide range of health problems affecting adults. Physicians with training in this field can manage conditions as simple as a minor injury or as complicated as diabetes.

Primary care providers who have studied internal medicine can provide exceptional care throughout every stage of your adult life, from early adulthood to those at an advanced age. 

Internists have extensive education in a wide range of medical specialties, including oncology, gynecology, dermatology, endocrinology, and others. The team at Solution Health Specialists is highly qualified to oversee every aspect of your care and to bring other specialists in when needed.
