Yes, an Internist is the doctor of choice if your high blood pressure is recent. High blood pressure is often associated with hormonal imbalances and kidney problems. These diseases are all covered by an Internist.
In the long run, high blood pressure might cause complications in the heart, such as left ventricle hypertrophy or coronary heart disease. In this case you also need to see a Cardiologist.
