Primary Care Nurse Practitioners
Internal Medicine Physicians, Primary Care Physicians, or Internists, are specialists who apply scientific knowledge and clinical expertise to the diagnosis, treatment, and compassionate care of adults across the spectrum of health. They are especially well trained in the diagnosis of puzzling medical problems, in the ongoing care of chronic illnesses, and in caring for patients with more than one disease. Internists also specialize in health promotion and disease prevention.
Internist vs Family Practice
Internal medicine physicians can be called internists, general internists, and doctors of internal medicine. Although internists may act as primary care physicians, they are not family physicians. Our Internal Medicine & Primary Care Specialists care for adult patients who are 18 years of age and above and have offices in Estero, Cape Coral, Fort Myers, and Lehigh Acres, FL. We are currently accepting New Patients. Call Now
Internists routinely see patients with conditions such as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and chronic lung disease. Internists also consult with doctors in other fields, or may be called to consult on a patient by another specialist.
Requirements
To become an internist, a graduate of a four-year medical school must complete a residency in internal medicine. Once internal medicine residency training is complete, a physician may begin to practice internal medicine. An internist may then choose to sub-specialize in a particular area of internal medicine, for example, cardiology or infectious diseases. Subspecialty training, called fellowship, calls for two to three years of additional training.
