- Internal medicine is the branch and specialty of medicine concerning the diagnosis and nonsurgical treatment of diseases in adults, especially of internal organs. Doctors of internal medicine, also called "internists", are required to have included in their medical schooling and postgraduate training at least three years dedicated to learning how to prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases that affect adults. Internists are sometimes referred to as the "doctor's doctor," because they are often called upon to act as consultants to other physicians to help solve puzzling diagnostic problems. While the name "internal medicine" may lead one to believe that internists only treat "internal" problems, though this is not the case. Doctors of internal medicine treat the whole person, not just internal organs. In the United Kingdom, the specialty is known as Acute Medicine According to the American Medical Association, specialists of internal medicine earn between $175,000 to $350,000 per year.

- Internal medicine is the medical specialty that deals with the non-surgical treatment of illness in adults. A specialist in the field is known as an internist (as opposed to an intern, who is a medical trainee). Internists often deal with patients who have diseases that affect multiple systems of the body or have an undifferentiated illness. Many other specialties in medicine are, in fact, sub-specialties of internal medicine including cardiology, nephrology, endocrinology and infectious disease. An internist will have a very broad range of knowledge, but it will not be very "deep". Although they often treat patients on an out-patient basis, many of their patients are hospital bound and very ill. In most cases, an internist will be the primary attending physician for a patient and will oversee the other sub-specialists working on the case. An internist will not work on pediatric patients, as the presentation and treatment of disease in adults usually differs greatly from that in a child. An internist will also generally not work on patients who clearly require surgery, or patients who are pregnant. Remy Hadley is an internist. The head of internal medicine at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital is Dr. Marty Kaufman.
