Having received precise medical training, internists are able to diagnose and treat specific illnesses. In general, an internist can treat a number of different diseases, but internists with subspecialties focus on complications associated with one disease. Additionally, internists are trained to provide preventive services, such as cancer screenings and mammograms. They can help patients establish regular habits and schedules.   Communication between internists is also excellent, as they give patients the full support they require. Internal medicine specialists facilitate referrals, hospital transfers, and other interoffice communication.   In some cases, patients can begin seeing an internist when they are 18 and continue seeing that internist for decades. Patients and doctors can establish a trusting, reliable relationship, which is extremely valuable.   Primary Care Center of Clear Lake offers internal medicine services.
