Black patients and Internal Medicine
Black internal medicine doctors: adult primary care for diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, the chronic conditions where disparities hit hardest.
Internal medicine physicians, often called internists, are adult-only primary care doctors trained to manage the chronic conditions where Black Americans shoulder the heaviest burden. Hypertension affects 56 percent of Black adults versus 48 percent of white adults (AHA, 2024). Type 2 diabetes is 60 percent more prevalent. Chronic kidney disease is 3 to 4 times more common. Internists see you annually, track labs over years, and coordinate care when you need cardiology, endocrinology, or nephrology.
Research in JAMA Network Open (2020) found racial concordance improves medication adherence for chronic disease, largely because patients trust and act on their physician's recommendations at a higher rate.
