Primary care consultations
Unhurried adult consultations for new, ongoing, and complex concerns.
Internal & Preventive Medicine
“I don't quite feel
like myself lately.”
Let's look at the whole picture.
A proper adult consultation with Dr. Jose Lopez — history, examination, the right investigations and an honest explanation of what we find. For check-ups, ongoing conditions, second opinions and everything that deserves more than a seven-minute visit.

Time to listen
A first consultation is generous by design — enough time for history, examination and a plan you leave holding.
Is this you?
Reasons people quietly book an internal
medicine appointment at AAMC.
None of these are dramatic. Most start with the same sentence: “It's probably nothing, but…” That's usually a good reason to come in.
“I've been tired for months and I can't shake it.”
Fatigue is worth investigating — thyroid, iron, sleep, mood, medications, all part of one conversation.
“My last blood pressure reading wasn't great.”
A calm, unhurried recheck, a proper cardiovascular review, and a plan that fits your life — not a rushed prescription.
“I want a full check-up before something goes wrong.”
Preventive care tailored to your age, family history and risk factors — not a template package.
“I've been putting off finding a real doctor here.”
Establish continuity of care with a physician who'll actually remember you at the next visit.
“I've got a report and I don't understand it.”
Bring your labs, imaging or specialist notes. We'll go through them properly and tell you what matters.
“I'm on medication and I'm not sure it's still right.”
A medication review that considers side effects, interactions and whether the plan still fits where you are now.
What we actually look at

Your physician
Dr. Jose Lopez
Internal Medicine Physician
Dr. Lopez leads AAMC's internal & preventive medicine care — from routine adult health reviews and screenings to the ongoing management of everyday and complex conditions.
What a first visit feels like
Unhurried,
thorough,
honest about what we find.
You'll speak with Dr. Jose Lopez — an internal medicine physician who takes the time to hear the story before reaching for the prescription pad. Every plan is written down. You leave knowing what happens next.
A first internal-medicine consultation typically runs 30–45 minutes. Bring anything relevant — labs, imaging, medication lists. Nothing is too small to mention.
- 01
The conversation
History, lifestyle, sleep, stress, medications — what's changed, and when. Ask anything. Nothing is dismissed.
- 02
A proper examination
Vitals, targeted physical examination, and any bedside tests that help — done calmly, explained as we go.
- 03
The right investigations
Bloods, imaging or specialist input when they genuinely help — not because it's routine. We explain why each test is ordered.
- 04
A written plan you take home
A clear summary of findings, decisions, prescriptions and next steps — plus a scheduled follow-up so nothing gets lost.

Journeys that begin with a question
Two composite stories — not testimonials — showing how an internal medicine or preventive appointment can unfold at AAMC.
“Why am I exhausted all the time?”
Step 1: ConcernA busy professional has been running on caffeine and short nights for months. Weekends no longer restore them, and even simple tasks feel heavy.
Step 2: Care conversationIn an unhurried internal medicine appointment, the clinician takes a full history, examines them and orders targeted labs — sleep, thyroid, iron, blood sugar and stress markers are all on the table.
Step 3: Next stepThey leave with a plain-language explanation of what may be contributing and an individualised plan — not a promised cure — plus a follow-up date to review results together.
“I want to stay ahead of my health.”
Step 1: ConcernAn adult with no major symptoms wants a proper baseline — the kind of check that considers family history, lifestyle and the years ahead, not just a checkbox panel.
Step 2: Care conversationThe consultation covers cardiovascular risk, metabolic health, lifestyle and any age-appropriate screening. Investigations are chosen for their usefulness, not their length.
Step 3: Next stepThey leave understanding where they stand today, which screenings matter next, and a written summary they can revisit — knowing they can return when something changes.
