What's the difference is between 'Internal Medicine' and 'General Practice?

What's the difference between a general practitioner, family practice, and internal medicine?

• I want to know because I want to apply for a job at an internal medicine clinic. What kinds of patients do they see?

• Answer:

  Internal medicine is the medical specialty dealing with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. Family practice: The medical specialty which provides continuing and comprehensive health care for the individual and family. It is the specialty in breadth which integrates the biological, clinical, and behavioral sciences. The scope of family practice encompasses all ages, both sexes, each organ system, and every disease entity. (From the American Academy of Family Physicians) A general practitioner or GP is a medical practitioner who provides primary care and specializes in nothing and sees everything. A general practitioner treats acute and chronic illnesses and provides preventive care and health education for all ages and both sexes. They have particular skills in treating people with multiple health issues and comorbidities.
