This is the branch of medicine that caters to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult
diseases & conditions. The physicians are well-equipped with the skills and expertise to manage
patients who are suffering from minor acute or chronic conditions.
The Internal Medicine Department is usually the 1 st point of care for a patient who is suffering
from minor symptoms & requires a generic or overall doctor consultation. Once they meet with
the specialist, their exact condition is diagnosed and managed within the purview of the
physician, or referred to a specialist; depending on the type & nature of the condition.
This is the most common department of choice for Senior Citizens or the elderly as well, who
are more health-oriented and conscious due to their age. They require regular advice from a
specialist, who can guide them through their daily lives, while maintaining the optimum health
parameters. This is where Geriatrics comes into the picture; with dedicated care provided to the
elderly sections of society to prevent, diagnose and treat various diseases.
