Internal Medicine is the branch of medical science
concerned with the diagnosis, management and nonsurgical treatment of
unusual or serious diseases. Most of the internists (internal medicine
specialists) are subspecialists: they generally limit their medical practice
to problems of one organ system or to one particular area of medical
knowledge. For example, gastroenterologists and nephrologists specialize
respectively in diseases related to gut and the kidneys.
The Department of Iinternal Medicine at Kalra provides primary and
subspecialty diagnostic and health care services for adolescents, adults and
geriatric patients. This division specializes in primary care, general
health assessments and consultation for complex medical problems. The
qualifications of the specialists encompass general or primary care internal
medicine, cardiology, diabetes and endocrinology, geriatrics, pulmonary and
critical care, sleep medicine and infectious diseases and AIDS.
