An internal-medicine consultation considers an adult patient's overall health, particularly when symptoms involve more than one organ system or several chronic conditions are present. His official profile lists assessment of high blood pressure, glucose or lipid disorders, fatigue, weakness, loss of appetite, abdominal pain, changes in laboratory results and the need for preoperative evaluation.

The consultation includes discussion of symptoms, previous illnesses and medicines, a clinical assessment and interpretation of existing medical documentation. Depending on the findings, an internist may recommend additional tests, follow-up or consultation with an appropriate subspecialist.
