Primary Care
Primary care involves first-contact care for people with an undiagnosed symptom or health concern. For a general internist, it also means managing multiple chronic diseases and coordinating other health services related to a patient's care. Internists focus only on adults, and their training includes significant experience in a hospital setting learning subspecialties such as endocrinology, cardiology and gastroenterology. Internists often co-manage conditions with these specialists.
