Rush Excellence in General Internal Medicine Services
- Care tailored for you: Internists work with you to help you achieve or maintain good health. They are also adept at managing complex, chronic conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure or acute conditions such as back pain or respiratory infections.
- Easy appointment scheduling: We make it fast and simple for new patients to get an appointment — even offering same-day appointments when you need it. This can be especially helpful if you're dealing with the flu, cold, cough, sore throat, sprains and strains and minor lacerations.
- Care at your fingertips: With your permission, we can access your medical records from more than 25 Chicago area hospitals, along with your prescriptions from numerous pharmacies. Your medical record is helpful because it lets our providers know about your allergies, immunizations and test results, which can help us tailor the most effective care plan for you.
