An internist is a physician trained in the diagnosis and treatment of people of various ages, ranging from teenagers to the elderly.

This is the only specialty that covers the entire range of adult medicine, including many subspecialties. We are often referred to as “primary care providers” (PCPs).

At Starling Physicians, our internists are prepared to deal with any problem a patient presents ­– no matter how common or how complex. We are specially trained in severe illnesses and cases where multiple illnesses strike at one time. We actively promote wellness, treat illness, address common health issues facing men and women, and understand substance abuse and mental health.

We provide a wide range of services to help you stay healthy and manage illness:

• Annual physical exams, routine screenings, and healthy lifestyle promotion
• Treatment of illness including sinus infections, flu, digestive problems, and back pain
• Detection and medical management of chronic health conditions such as diabetes, asthma, cholesterol, thyroid, and heart disease
• Immunizations and travel medicine
• Cancer screenings
• Heart health, including blood pressure monitoring and electrocardiograms

Our internists take pride in caring for our patients for life. When specialty care is needed, we make referrals to appropriate specialists and will coordinate and manage your care. Our internists, specialists, and labs use an electronic medical record, which travels within our practice, enhancing physician communications, keeping your records together, and minimizing loss and delays.
