Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Internal Medicine care with Dr. Conn:
- 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, 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 is a core strength of Internal Medicine. Dr. Conn 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. Conn will review all of your prescriptions (even those from specialists) to check for interactions, ensure proper dosing, and simplify your regimen whenever possible.
- 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 have expertise in geriatrics, making them well-suited for your care as you age.
- How do you coordinate care with my other doctors, like my cardiologist or surgeon?
- Dr. Conn serves as your central point of contact for all your health information. We coordinate care with your cardiologist and surgeon, managing referrals, reviewing reports, and ensuring all treatments and medications are compatible. This ensures a safe and effective approach to your overall health.
- Do you only treat sick patients, or do you also focus on preventive care?
- Dr. Conn's practice emphasizes adult wellness and disease prevention, including annual physicals, management of risk factors like high cholesterol and blood pressure, and recommended screenings for various conditions.
- 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. Conn can help. Internists are skilled at diagnosing complex medical issues, often considered "medical detectives" due to their extensive training. Dr. Conn is adept at evaluating confusing or unusual symptoms to determine the underlying cause.
- Should I see an Internist for a common illness like a sinus infection?
