Internal Medicine Q & A
What is internal medicine?
Internal medicine is the application of clinical expertise and scientific knowledge to the diagnosis, prevention, and care of adults - from general health care needs to complex diseases. A physician specializing in internal medicine, or an internist, undergoes several years of medical school and postgraduate training to treat adults in this capacity. Their expertise is not limited to one organ or system; they are trained to handle anything you might bring to them.
Dr. Goldberg makes connections between your health history, lifestyle, and symptoms to accurately diagnose your condition and recommend the best course of treatment available.
What conditions does an internist diagnose and treat?
With extensive specialized training, internists are qualified to prevent, diagnose, and manage nearly all conditions affecting patients from young adulthood well into the golden years.
