Internal Medicine

Internal Medicine Doctor in Greenville, TX

Internal medicine deals with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of adult diseases. A specialist of internal medicine will use their extensive training with the best medical science available to care for their patients while establishing a meaningful doctor-patient relationship that facilitates the best medical care possible. Because of the extra training internal medicine doctors receive, they are often referred to as the “doctor’s doctor” as they are able to act as consultants to other physicians when they are faced with complicated or perplexing diagnostic problems. 

Some internal physicians take their training to an even higher level with additional training for an even more focused area of internal medicine. It requires another three years beyond the training they already received. This extra training in a “subspecialty” area is intense and qualifies them to take care of very complex medical issues and many times to perform advanced clinical procedures as well. Dr. Zeb, MD, FACC has gone through the “subspecialty” of cardiology to treat diseases of the heart.

Heart Disease
We routinely see adult patients with conditions including:

Hypertension

High blood pressure (hypertension) can cause serious health conditions like heart disease, strokes aneurysms, heart failure and death. Sadly almost half of adults in the US have high blood pressure. Obviously keeping your blood pressure under control should be your priority. Greenville Cardiology & Internal Medicine will diagnose, treat and prevent hypertension to give you the best quality of life for as long as possible.  

COPD

Chronic obstruction pulmonary disease (COPD) happens when an obstruction of airflow in your lungs interferes with normal breathing. Examples of COPD are emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Damage to your lungs from COPD cannot be completely restored, but treatment will ease the symptoms and prevent further damage.  

Diabetes/Mellitus

Those with diabetes cannot produce or respond to the hormone insulin, causing an abnormal metabolism of carbohydrates and high levels of glucose in the blood and urine. For the proper diagnostic exams, treatment and preventative measures for diabetes turn to Greenville Cardiology & Internal Medicine.

You cannot live without your kidneys and yet 1 in 8 adults have kidney disease. Your kidneys filter waste and extra fluid from your blood, as well as many other important functions to keep your body healthy.
