Sentinel Health Partners - Internal Medicine

Internal Medicine

The goal of an internist (internal medicine physician) is to detect and treat diseases in their earliest stages before major problems develop. This is accomplished by designing a highly individualized plan for each patient based on their personal and family medical history, lifestyle, and overall health condition.
