International Medical News Group

Internal Medicine News reaches over 120,000 internal medicine specialists, cardiologists, endocrinologists, gastroenterologists, nephrologists, and pulmonologists twice a month and offers:

Incisive & Timely Medical Meeting Coverage
A team of over 60 professional journalists report from over 500 medical meetings each year. They attend the sessions and conduct the interviews that result in the news articles that physicians rely on to keep up to date on a wide range medical advances that they can use in their daily practices. Internal Medicine News reports late-breaking clinical trial results and specialty trends months before they are published in medical journals. Internists know that to keep current, they need to read every issue.

Expert Perspective and Commentary
The thought leaders of medicine contribute regularly to the columns and features in Internal Medicine News. "New and Approved" and “News From the FDA” features expert evaluations of recently approved drugs. "Drugs, Pregnancy, and Lactation" helps physicians select safe therapeutic regimens for pregnant and breast-feeding patients. “Alternative Medicine” takes an evidence-based approach to techniques and treatments not typically used in practice for diagnosis, treatment and prevention. “The Effective Physician” is a quick-read analysis of new treatment guidelines and how to put them into practice. Editorials and "Point/Counterpoint" features are lively physician forums. “Genetics in Your Practice” puts genetic advances into practice.

Broad and Balanced News Coverage
Since 1968, Internal Medicine News has provided independent, unbiased coverage of the clinical, regulatory, legislative, and financial news of internal medicine. We meet the practice needs of internists with sections on Cardiovascular Medicine, Gastroenterology, and Infectious Diseases. Our Clinical Rounds section highlights the primary care take-home message on subspecialty advances in Adolescent Health, Dermatology, Endocrinology, Geriatrics, Neurology, Oncology, Psychiatry, Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine, Rheumatology, Sports Medicine, and Women’s Health. Internal Medicine News is respected by physician readers for its accuracy and credibility.

Practice Trends Goes Beyond Clinical News
Changes in reimbursement and other regulatory and legislative news that have an impact on medical practice are addressed in our Practice Trends section and our “Policy & Practice” column. “The Rest of Your Life” profiles physician lifestyles, “WorldWideMed” examines attitudes and experiences among U.S. physicians who have practiced in other countries, and “Indications” looks at the light side of medical news.

Readability & Reliability
Internal medicine physicians know they can depend on Internal Medicine News to deliver authoritative, specialty-relevant information with a focus on their practice needs. Advertisers and sponsors of supplements can rely on Internal Medicine News to reach this key primary care audience.
