Internist Jobs in Lake Forest, CA

An Internist is a specialist in internal medicine, a discipline focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. Internists can act as a primary care physician, but they are not general practitioners; their expertise lies in dealing with complex illnesses and chronic conditions. They also often consult with other physicians to help solve puzzling diagnostic problems. Internists often have patients who are seriously ill or have complex illnesses, hence they play a crucial role in the medical field.

Regarding important skills and certifications, Internists need to have completed medical school and a residency program in internal medicine, which usually lasts around three years. They should be adept at problem-solving, have a strong knowledge base of disease pathology, be skilled at medical procedures, and have strong interpersonal skills. They need to be certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine. Prior to becoming an Internist, a person might have roles such as a Medical Officer, General Practitioner, or Medical Intern during their residency training.
