Internal Medicine Q&A

Internal medicine specializes in preventing, diagnosing, and treating the full range of mental and physical health conditions affecting adults. The skilled internal medicine providers at Leading MDs serve as primary care physicians (PCPs).

Your PCP is the first person you call whenever you need medical help, whether you have a sudden illness, want a routine check-up, suffer an injury, or need chronic disease or pain management.

PCPs also coordinate with specialists and manage your care if you're in the hospital, a rehabilitation clinic, or a nursing facility. And when you're discharged, they take care of you with comprehensive transitional care.

Your provider at Leading MDs offers comprehensive internal medicine services, such as:

  • Sick visits
  • Routine physicals
  • Annual Medicare visits
  • Preventive care
  • Women's and men's reproductive health care
  • Chronic disease management
  • Nutritional counseling
  • Weight-loss management
  • Immunizations
  • Pain management
  • Medication management
  • Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
  • Cognitive (memory) screenings
  • Cancer screening and preventive services
  • Mental health screening and treatment

    • They also provide medical clearance for surgery and sports.

    Your Leading MDs provider takes care of acute (sudden) illnesses, minor injuries, and chronic diseases. These are just a few examples of the conditions frequently treated at Leading MDs:

  • Respiratory infections
  • Common cold
  • Seasonal flu
  • COVID
  • Sinus infections
  • Migraines
  • Skin rashes
  • Arthritis
  • Asthma
  • Diabetes
  • High blood pressure

    • This list isn't close to being comprehensive, so don't hesitate to call the office if you have any questions about your condition or symptoms.

    Internal medicine visits begin with the basics: reviewing your medical history, learning about your symptoms and concerns, and taking your vitals (blood pressure, heart rate, and weight).

    Otherwise, the care you receive depends on the reason for your visit. If you're sick, suffered a minor injury, or you're having a flare-up of a chronic health condition, your visit focuses on the current problem, identifying the cause and providing the immediate care you need to relieve your symptoms.

    Preventive health care and physicals focus on evaluating your overall health, performing risk assessments and health screenings, and creating a long-term lifestyle strategy to achieve and maintain optimal health.
