- What is the difference between an Internal Medicine doctor and a Family Medicine doctor?

Family Medicine physicians, in contrast, provide care for patients of all ages, including children.

- 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 acting as "medical detectives." Dr. Gullett is skilled at evaluating unusual or vague symptoms to arrive at the correct diagnosis.
- What kind of adult immunizations do you provide?

- Yes, an internist like Dr. Gullett is a great choice for a sinus infection or other common adult illness. They are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions, making them well-suited to provide comprehensive primary care.
- How do you coordinate care with my other doctors, like my cardiologist or surgeon?
