They're doctors who specialize in the internal organs and systems of the body, but they are not limited to those areas. They can also give preventive care and treat anything from skin rashes to ear infections. They only treat adults and they aren't surgeons.Jul 15, 2023 https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/what-is-internist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably a general practictioner made the recommendation, assuming the poster would know that it was an internal medicine doctor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
