Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Internal Medicine care with Dr. Perry:
- 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 complex adult illnesses and managing 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, an internist is an excellent choice. Managing multiple chronic conditions is a core strength of internal medicine. Dr. Perry 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.
- Can you help me manage my medications?
- Yes. Medication management is a critical part of internal medicine, especially for patients with multiple conditions. Dr. Perry will review all of your prescriptions (even those from specialists) to check for interactions, ensure proper dosing, and simplify your regimen whenever possible.
- Do you only treat sick patients, or do you also focus on preventive care?
- Dr. Perry's practice emphasizes preventive care as a major focus. A significant portion of our work is dedicated to adult wellness and disease prevention, including annual physicals, managing risk factors, and providing recommended screenings.
- Should I see an Internist for a common illness like a sinus infection?
- Yes, Dr. Perry is an excellent choice for a sinus infection. Internists are primary care doctors who can diagnose and treat a wide range of common illnesses, including sinus infections. They are equipped to handle your care comprehensively.
- 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, and many internists, like Dr. Perry, have expertise in geriatrics, making them well-suited to care for you as you age.
- How do you coordinate care with my other doctors, like my cardiologist or surgeon?
- Dr. Perry serves as your central point of contact for all your medical care. We coordinate with your other doctors, like your cardiologist or surgeon, to ensure all treatments and medications work together safely and effectively. We manage referrals and review specialist reports to maintain a complete picture of your health.
- I have a set of confusing symptoms that other doctors haven't been able to diagnose. Can an Internist help?
