Internal Medicine (Internal Diseases)

Although modern medicine shifts from treatment for the
consequences of diseases to cause and target-oriented treatment with preventive
medicine practices, today’s practice gives modern medicine an obligation to
raise the quality of life of the person within the integrity of health and to
make it sustainable. In this sense, internal medicine specialization

will integrate health with a sustainable and quality life.

The internal medicine specialist evaluates the person
with their familial (genetic), environmental, occupational and habits and seeks
an answer to the question of “how to have a better life?” With
possible risks.

smoking, familial ailments). It works for the prevention of diabetes,

of doing sports, and avoiding smoking and alcohol use. It takes preventive
protection and immunization measures against chronic (such as hepatitis c),
acute (such as influenza, pneumonia) diseases.
