Internal Medicine

Internal medicine is a non-surgical medical specialty concerned with diseases of the internal organs in adults. At BVMA, our internists provide comprehensive primary care to individuals aged 12 and older. They also provide consultations for difficult diagnostic problems. Our internists are skilled in disease prevention and in managing complex disorders of the body. They typically act as personal physicians and develop long-term relationships with their patients.
