Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Internal Medicine care with Dr. Myint:
- What is the difference between an Internal Medicine doctor and a Family Medicine doctor?
- Internal Medicine physicians, or Internists, specialize in adult healthcare (typically age 18 and older). They have extensive training in diagnosing and managing complex adult illnesses and chronic conditions. Family Medicine physicians, in contrast, 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 like heart disease and diabetes is a core strength of Internal Medicine. Dr. Myint 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. Myint provides common adult vaccines, 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.
- Can you help me manage my medications?
- Yes, medication management is a critical part of internal medicine, especially for patients with multiple conditions. Dr. Myint 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?
- Yes, an internist like Dr. Myint is well-suited to address common illnesses like sinus infections. They are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of adult health concerns, including respiratory infections and urinary tract infections. This is part of their role as a comprehensive primary care provider.
- 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 to senior years. Many internists have expertise in geriatrics, making them ideal for managing the health needs of older adults.
- 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. Myint can be very helpful. Internists are highly trained in diagnosing complex medical conditions, often considered "medical detectives." Dr. Myint is skilled at evaluating a wide range of symptoms, including vague or unusual ones, to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.
- Do you only treat sick patients, or do you also focus on preventive care?
- Dr. Myint's practice emphasizes preventive care as a major focus, along with treating illness. This includes annual physicals, managing risk factors like high cholesterol and blood pressure, and providing recommended screenings for adults. We are dedicated to helping patients maintain their health and well-being.
