Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Internal Medicine care with Dr. Schneider:
- What is the difference between an Internal Medicine doctor and a Family Medicine doctor?
- Internal Medicine physicians, or Internists, specialize in adult health care (typically age 18 and older).

- Yes, an internist is an excellent choice. Managing multiple chronic conditions is a core strength of internal medicine. Dr. Schneider is an expert in understanding how different adult diseases interact and can coordinate all aspects of care, including medications and specialist visits, to create a cohesive health plan.
- Do you only treat sick patients, or do you also focus on preventive care?
- Dr. Schneider's practice emphasizes adult wellness and disease prevention, including annual physicals, managing risk factors, and providing recommended screenings. A major focus is on preventing illness through proactive care.
- Should I see an Internist for a common illness like a sinus infection?
- Yes, an internist like Dr. Schneider is well-suited to treat common illnesses like sinus infections. They are trained to diagnose and manage a wide range of adult health concerns, including acute infections. They are your primary care provider for comprehensive adult health needs.
- I have a set of confusing symptoms that other doctors haven't been able to diagnose. Can an Internist help?
- Yes, an internist like Dr. Schneider can help. Internists are highly trained in diagnosing complex medical conditions, often considered "medical detectives." Dr. Schneider is skilled at evaluating vague or unusual symptoms to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.

- Dr. Schneider serves as the central point for your health information, coordinating care with your cardiologist and surgeon. We manage referrals, review specialist reports, and ensure all treatments and medications work together safely and effectively.

- Yes. Medication management is a critical part of internal medicine, especially for patients with multiple conditions. Dr. Schneider will review all of your prescriptions (even those from specialists) to check for interactions, ensure proper dosing, and simplify your regimen whenever possible.
