Questions and Answers

What symptoms should I visit an internist for?

An internist, as a specialist in internal medicine, has extensive knowledge and experience in this area. They are often the first point of contact for a variety of symptoms, such as shortness of breath, nausea, abdominal pain, chest pain, cold and flu symptoms (cough, runny nose, sore throat, fever), joint pain, swelling, general weakness, digestive problems, sleep disturbances, etc. The internist's role is to make a preliminary diagnosis, refer the patient for further diagnostics, and prescribe medications when necessary. Internists in our Poznań facilities, in addition to helping with immediate symptoms, also coordinate the treatment of chronic diseases.

What does an internist diagnose?

Internal medicine is a medical specialty focusing on internal diseases. An internist diagnoses and treats conditions affecting the heart and circulatory system, the digestive system, liver, thyroid, lungs, respiratory system, joints, bones, etc. Their role is to diagnose conditions such as infections, metabolic disorders, or autoimmune diseases and, when necessary, refer the patient to the appropriate specialists. Internists (in our Poznań facilities) also assess the overall health of the patient, identify risk factors, and provide care for patients with chronic diseases.

Is an internist the same as a family doctor?

Although the roles of these two specialists are similar, and the terms are often used interchangeably, their competencies do differ slightly. Internal medicine and family medicine are two medical specialties with broad scope, requiring extensive knowledge and experience. An internist focuses on diagnosing and treating internal diseases in adult patients. A family doctor, on the other hand, cares for patients of all ages – from children to seniors. They often act as the primary care physician for the whole family, providing a wider range of healthcare services. In our Poznań facilities, you'll find both family doctors and internists, often serving as primary care physicians.

What does an internist examine?

Our internists, privately working at CM Medicover facilities in Poznań, first gather a detailed medical history from the patient regarding their health status, concerning symptoms, and any ongoing health issues. They will inquire about chronic diseases and any medications the patient is taking. Depending on the reported symptoms, a physical examination will be conducted, assessing the general condition of the skin, mucous membranes, and performing auscultation. The specialist may also measure blood pressure or examine the auditory canals (otoscopic examination).

Who is my family doctor? How to check?

You can check your family doctor in the NFZ system by logging into your Internet Patient Account (IPK) at https://pacjent.gov.pl/internetowe-konto-pacjenta or at the clinic where you submitted your declaration of family doctor choice. You can change your family doctor (to another one in Poznań or any other location in Poland) at any time. If you want to schedule a private consultation with a family doctor in Poznań in our facilities, you do not need to make such declarations or have a registered family doctor.

How to make an appointment with a primary care doctor?

If you want to schedule a private visit to a primary care doctor at CM Medicover in Poznań, all you need to do is book an appointment (either in-person or via teleconsultation) directly at the clinic, via the helpline, or around the clock via online registration. Choose a doctor, check the facilities they practice at, and available dates – usually, you can choose an appointment for today or in the next few days.
