Many internal medicine doctors serve as family doctors and primary care physicians. An internist who provides a more general but comprehensive scope of services can perform diagnostics such as physical examinations, bone-density testing, cholesterol testing and pap smears.
Internists have the training to provide an extensive range of diagnostic and treatment services that typically would have to be done by several different doctors. Internists complete a three year residency in internal medicine before going on to treat patients with a variety of medical conditions. Subspecialists in internal medicine complete the three year residency, and a two or three year fellowship in their area of interest.
