General Medicine

General medicine is a branch of healthcare focused on diagnosing and treating a wide range of adult health issues. In an outpatient setting, where patients are seen without being admitted to a hospital, general medicine doctors often deal with both short-term and long-term health problems. Common short-term issues include colds, flu, stomach problems, and infections, while long-term conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, and heart disease are regularly managed. Doctors help patients control these ongoing health problems by monitoring their progress, adjusting medications, and advising on lifestyle changes, such as eating healthier and staying active, to prevent worsening conditions. They also frequently help with everyday issues like back pain, joint problems, and mental health concerns such as anxiety and depression. By providing thorough and continuous care, general medicine doctors aim to help patients maintain a good quality of life and stay out of the hospital.
