For many, the phrase "internal medicine" conjures images of sterile exam rooms and rushed appointments. But at Northeast Medical Group, we believe internal medicine is about so much more than just treating symptoms. It's about building a lasting partnership with you, understanding your unique health journey, and empowering you to live your healthiest life. This isn't just a doctor-patient relationship; it's a collaborative effort focused on preventative care and proactive health management.
My name is Dr. Evelyn Reed, and I've been a practicing internist with Northeast Medical Group for over 15 years. I've witnessed firsthand the transformative power of comprehensive internal medicine, and I'm excited to share our approach with you. We pride ourselves on our patient-centered philosophy, combining cutting-edge medical advancements with a deeply personal touch.
What is Internal Medicine?
Internal medicine focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. Unlike specialists who focus on specific organs or systems, internists provide comprehensive care for a wide range of conditions, from routine checkups to managing chronic illnesses. We're your primary care physicians, acting as your health advocates and guiding you through every stage of your well-being.
At Northeast Medical Group, our internal medicine services are designed to address your holistic health needs. This goes beyond simply treating the immediate problem; we delve into lifestyle factors, family history, and personal goals to create a customized care plan tailored specifically to you.

What is the difference between a general practitioner and an internist?
While both general practitioners (GPs) and internists provide primary care, there are some key differences. GPs often provide care for patients of all ages, while internists specialize in the care of adults. Internists typically have more extensive training in diagnosing and managing complex medical conditions. The best choice depends on your individual needs and preferences.
