Acute Care

Illnesses and injuries that go away quickly are called acute (short-term), versus those that last for months or years, which are called chronic (long-term). Examples of acute conditions include colds, flu, sore throat, minor fractures, and pulled muscles. Diabetes and heart problems are examples of chronic conditions. Dr. Fiorentino  sees both kinds of problems at Lakeview Internal Medicine in Seneca, SC.

You can call Dr. Fiorentino for a sick appointment within 24 to 48 hours, and your appointment will never be rushed. Same-day appointments are also available.

Lakeview Internal Medicine has developed a reputation for high quality care. Even as we grow, our practice will remain focused on the quality of care we provide. We accomplish this by giving patients our full attention during their appointment and taking time to address every concern.

Dr. Fiorentino keeps a flexible schedule so that he can spend extended time with each patient to make sure everything is addressed, including the appropriate blood work and labs. No matter what the problem is, you can call Dr. Fiorentino for solid medical advice.

Should you require hospitalization, Dr. Fiorentino will coordinate your care with the hospital and obtain all necessary medical information from the hospital prior to your follow-up appointment following hospital discharge.

If you want a doctor who will actually listen to you and understand the details of your symptoms, then you should visit Dr. Fiorentino. He invests in his patients because they are a reflection of his medical practice. His patients get the treatment they need without the frustration and hassle of a busy doctor’s office.
