Primary Care

Adult primary care in Harker Heights, Texas

Internal medicine doctors, or internists, are concerned with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. This includes patients who have undifferentiated or multi-system disease processes. Internists care for hospitalized and ambulatory patients and may play a major role in teaching and research. Because internal medicine patients are often seriously ill or require complex investigations, internists do much of their work in hospitals. Internists often have subspecialty interests in diseases affecting particular organs or organ systems.
