Internal medicine residency

An internist is a specialist physician who provides health care to adults. Some internists provide a wide range of primary care, and others limit their practice to metabolic disorders and conditions of organs between the neck and the navel. The internal medicine residency is 3 years long and does not require training in psychiatry or behavioral health per se however, many internal medicine residents seek out such training by elective experiences and additional study. Many internists feel comfortable treating their patients who suffer from mild to moderate depression, but most will refer patients with more serious mental health care needs. [Pg.216]

Coy Fitch (1934- ) as a medical student at the University of Arkansas School of Medicine (Little Rock, Arkansas), became interested in biochemistry and was provided research space and other resources. He earned an master of science (MS) in biochemistry as well as a doctor of medicine (MD) in 1958 and remained at the School of Medicine as a resident in medicine and Russell M. Wilder-National Vitamin Foundation Fellow in biochemistry (1958-1962). By the time the residency was completed he had developed an interest in membrane transport processes, and he remained on the faculty of the University of Arkansas as an assistant professor of medicine and biochemistry studying such. Five years later, he moved to the Saint Louis University School of Medicine (Saint Louis, Missouri) as Associate Professor of Internal Medicine and Biochemistry. That move made him vulnerable to military service. As a consequence, he was promptly drafted into the Army and assigned to the Division of Biochemistry of the WRAIR. [Pg.54]

The rheumatologist must be a graduate of a medical school or a school of osteopathy. To be accepted to medical school, the student must have an undergraduate degree and appropriate course work. After medical school, the doctor must complete a residency at an accredited hospital. In the United States, the first year of the residency is the internship, which provides general medical experience. After the internship, the doctor does a two-year residency in either internal medicine or pediatrics. Then, if the doctor who chooses to become a specialist, a two- to three-year fellowship in that specialty is required. Osteopaths follow a similar pathway to that of medical doctors and must complete a fellowship to qualify as a specialist. [Pg.1619]

In the course of the above-mentioned mechanisms Silics remains unchanged and thus preserves its activity during its residence in the intestine. Silics may also have promise in the clinical treatment for some internal diseases. The major lines of research into applications of this medicinal preparation in the relevant therapies are presented in Table 7. Of significance is the ability of Silics to lower cholesterol levels and triglycerides, as well as to retard aggregation of thrombocytes. Thus, with the help of Silics it becomes possible to treat the main pathogenic factors of atherosclerosis, namely hyperlipidemia and hypercoagulation (Table 7). [Pg.200]
