What is internal medicine?

Internal medicine is medical care for adults. The elite team of internal medicine physicians at Calabasas Medicine Group offers all-encompassing medical care for patients starting from age 18. 

How are internal medicine and family medicine different?

Internal medicine specialists only treat patients 18 and older. Family medicine specialists have general training to address the most basic needs for patients of all ages, from young children to elderly adults.

But, most adults need more than just the essential care that family medicine offers. About 60% of adults now have a chronic illness, which requires disease-specific medical care that also considers the patient’s unique personal needs. 

Many adults also have chronic symptoms that they can’t explain, which means they may need specialized testing, like functional lab testing, to get to the bottom of their problems and start to heal. 

Internal medicine physicians like the Calabasas Medicine Group specialists are uniquely trained to evaluate, diagnose, and treat all types of medical problems in adults. They have specialized training for maturing adults’ specific needs. 

So, internal medicine is the best choice for adults because it gives you medical care perfectly attuned to your needs at every stage of your life. 

What does internal medicine care include?
