Listings come from the CMS NPPES NPI Registry, the public federal record of licensed providers, checked October 2026. Being listed is not a recommendation or an endorsement, and we do not receive anything from these doctors. Call the office to confirm insurance, availability and that they are accepting new patients. In an emergency, call 911.
After your visit
Most of internal medicine happens between appointments: a routine to keep, a symptom to watch, labs to repeat. Writing down how you feel each day turns a vague "it has been fine, I think" into a clear picture at your next check-up. Emerge Care, free to download on iPhone, is built for exactly that: tell it how you feel in your own words, get plain answers with the source behind every fact, and walk into your next internal medicine doctor appointment in Oakland with a one-page summary and your questions ready.
Emerge Care never diagnoses or replaces your doctor.
