- 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 for patients 18 and older.

- Yes. Managing multiple chronic conditions is a core strength of Internal Medicine. Dr. Sibley 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.
- Since you don't treat children, will I need to find a new doctor when I get older?
- No. Internal medicine covers the entire adult lifespan, from young adulthood through senior years. Many internists have expertise in geriatrics, making them ideal for managing the health needs of older adults.
- Do you only treat sick patients, or do you also focus on preventive care?

Dr. Sibley is skilled at evaluating unusual or vague symptoms to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.
- What kind of adult immunizations do you provide?
- Dr. Sibley provides a variety of adult immunizations, including annual flu shots, tetanus boosters (Tdap), shingles (Shingrix), and pneumonia vaccines (Prevnar/Pneumovax). She will review your immunization history and recommend vaccinations based on your age, health status, and CDC guidelines.
- Can you help me manage my medications?
- Yes. Medication management is a critical part of internal medicine, especially for patients with multiple conditions. Dr. Sibley will review all of your prescriptions (even those from specialists) to check for interactions, ensure proper dosing, and simplify your regimen whenever possible.
- Should I see an Internist for a common illness like a sinus infection?
