Internal Medicine

Internal Medicine

It is the gateway to the patient's health server application and a permanent central unit for all health services. As a patient's main source of regular medical care, the internist specializes in ensuring the continuity and integration of healthcare services in the best possible way. It is divided into specific sub-branches within itself and the diagnosis, follow-up and treatment of the patient is carried out in a wide range. Here are the internal branches and related diseases;
