Internal Medicine
Advanced and Comprehensive Medical Care for Adults
Loyola Medicine’s internal medicine doctors oversee the general health of adult patients, from annual check-ups to common medical conditions and disease management.
An internal medicine doctor (or internist) undergoes extensive training to approach healthcare issues facing adults 18 and older. Internists are specially trained to diagnose and treat complex illnesses, as well as manage the prevention of illnesses.
If you have a medical condition that needs more specialized care, your internal medicine doctor will refer you to a Loyola specialist who has experience and expertise in caring for your condition.
Your Loyola internal medicine doctor will not just treat your symptoms on a case-by-case basis—he or she will guide you through longitudinal care and care coordination.
Loyola offers many internal medicine facilities across Chicagoland so you can see your doctor at a location that is convenient for you. Discover Loyola’s many internal medicine locations.
