Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Internal Medicine care with Dr. Mundluru:
- 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). They have extensive training in diagnosing and managing complex adult illnesses and chronic conditions. Family Medicine physicians, on the other hand, provide care for patients of all ages, including children.
- I have multiple chronic conditions, like heart disease and diabetes. Is an Internist a good choice for me?
- Yes. Managing multiple chronic conditions is a core strength of Internal Medicine. Dr. Mundluru 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.
- What kind of adult immunizations do you provide?
- Dr. Mundluru provides various adult immunizations, including annual flu shots, tetanus boosters (Tdap), shingles (Shingrix), and pneumonia (Prevnar/Pneumovax) vaccines. She will review your immunization history and recommend vaccinations based on your age, health status, and CDC guidelines.
- How do you coordinate care with my other doctors, like my cardiologist or surgeon?
- Dr. Mundluru 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.
- Should I see an Internist for a common illness like a sinus infection?
- Yes, an internist like Dr. Mundluru is well-suited to treat a sinus infection. Internists are primary care physicians who diagnose and manage a wide range of adult illnesses, including common acute conditions. They are equipped to provide comprehensive care for your needs.
- Do you only treat sick patients, or do you also focus on preventive care?
- Dr. Mundluru's practice emphasizes preventive care as a major focus, including adult wellness and disease prevention. This involves annual physicals, managing risk factors like high cholesterol and blood pressure, and providing recommended screenings for adults.
- I have a set of confusing symptoms that other doctors haven't been able to diagnose. Can an Internist help?
- Yes, an internist can definitely help. Internists are highly trained in diagnosing complex medical conditions, often considered "medical detectives." Dr. Mundluru is skilled at evaluating vague or unusual symptoms to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.
- 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 specialize in geriatrics, making them well-suited to care for older adults.
