About internal medicine
What does an internal medicine specialist do?
An internal medicine specialist, or internist, diagnoses and treats adult illnesses without surgery, including conditions that affect several parts of the body at once.
When should I see an internist rather than a general practitioner?
An internist is a good choice when symptoms need a thorough work-up, when you have more than one long-term condition, or when a condition such as diabetes or high blood pressure needs regular specialist review.
Does Dr. Sheena treat children?
Internal medicine focuses on adults. For children, please ask the hospital about a paediatrician.
