ACP Internist is the official tabloid-sized member publication of the American College of Physicians (ACP).
ACP Internist is written for general internists and internal medicine subspecialists and is a benefit of paid ACP membership. Many internists are primary care physicians who provide disease prevention services, diagnosis, and treatment to adults and adolescents. Others have chosen to specialize their practice in one of internal medicine’s 14 subspecialties: cardiology, gastroenterology, nephrology, endocrinology, hematology, rheumatology, neurology, pulmonary disease, oncology, infectious diseases, allergy and immunology, sports medicine, critical care medicine, or geriatrics. The number of general internists and subspecialists in the United States grew by 4% to 217,103 between July 1, 2007 and July 1, 2008. There are currently twice as many general internists and subspecialists as family physicians (102,041), and last year internists wrote nearly half a billion prescriptions. This group constitutes the ideal market for advertisers who wish to reach high-prescribing clinicians treating adult patients.
