Internal medicine is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of complex diseases in adults. Internists, the doctors specialized in internal medicine, are trained to manage both common and rare diseases that affect the body's internal organs. They are adept at handling chronic illnesses and situations where multiple conditions might affect a patient simultaneously. Internists often serve as primary care physicians and provide ongoing patient care.
Family practice, also known as family medicine, is a medical specialty devoted to comprehensive health care for people of all ages. Unlike specialists who focus on a specific type of disease or age group, family practitioners deliver a range of acute, chronic, and preventive medical care services. In addition to diagnosing and treating illness, they also provide preventive care, including routine checkups, health-risk assessments, immunization and screening tests, and personalized counseling on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Family practitioners often build lasting relationships with patients, providing care for multiple family members across generations.
