Questions about internal medicine at Apollo Clinic
What does an internal medicine doctor do?
An internal medicine physician cares for adults. They prevent, diagnose and treat a wide range of illnesses, especially long-term and complex conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and thyroid disorders, and they coordinate your ongoing care.
What is the difference between internal medicine and general medicine?
Internal medicine focuses on adults and on diagnosing and managing complex or long-term conditions. General medicine is usually the first stop for common everyday illnesses. Both can act as your primary care doctor, and your doctor will refer you on when more specialised care is needed.
Which conditions do you treat?
Chronic conditions (diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorders), infections and fever, digestive problems such as GERD, gastritis and IBS, respiratory conditions such as asthma, COPD and pneumonia, kidney and urinary tract problems, anaemia, joint pain and arthritis, and weight and metabolic concerns.
Can I have a general health check-up?
Yes. Comprehensive adult health check-ups and preventive screenings are available, chosen according to your age and risk factors so that problems are found early.
Can an internal medicine doctor be my regular doctor?
Yes. Our internal medicine doctors act as primary care physicians, guiding you through continuous, coordinated care for your overall health.
