At Baxter Health, we are your partners for a healthier tomorrow. That’s why our internal medicine physicians, or internists, are here to answer your health-related questions and offer advice to protect your physical wellbeing. Comprehensive primary care for adults includes giving prescriptions, monitoring your health over time, and providing referrals to specialists if the need arises.
Your internist is “your” doctor, acts as the primary point of contact for all health-related matters, and can assist with routine wellness checks, ordering lab tests, and diagnosing and treating common injuries or illnesses. If your internist diagnoses you with a chronic condition better treated by a specialist, they can refer you to another physician at Baxter Health who offers skilled care.
Internists diagnose and treat various common health problems, including the flu, high blood pressure, diabetes, and many others. They can help you manage your medication regimens and provide medication consultations. The main goal your internist has is to promote total body wellness through preventative measures, because it’s always best to proactively address health concerns rather than react to them once they become a major issue.
