Internal medicine is the medical specialty dealing with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. Physicians specializing in internal medicine are called internists. They manage and prevent common and complex diseases by providing comprehensive care and promoting overall well-being.

To illustrate this, Dr. Crawford sees herself as a helper in the overall healing process with her patients, while acknowledging the hand of God as the true, ultimate healer.
