About Sean J. Coughlin, MD

  • Dr. Coughlin grew up in Galveston, Texas, and enjoys spending time with his wife and three children, especially outdoors. He also enjoys playing golf, guitar, singing, reading history, and helping coach his childrens’ sports.

Internal medicine allows me to evaluate and manage a broad range of complex medical conditions in addition to focusing on preventive medicine. My focus is to effectively communicate with my patients to motivate them to see the benefits of both evidence-based preventive medicine and to be knowledgeable of and proactive with their health when and if diseases develop.
