INTERNAL MEDICINE

Internal Medicine

Internal Medicine is the medical specialty dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and management of adult diseases, with a comprehensive and integrated approach to the body. The internist specialises in managing complex and chronic conditions, assessing the patient as a whole rather than focusing only on isolated symptoms.

This specialty plays a key role in the coordination of healthcare and in the integration of different medical areas.

Internal Medicine in Lagos and Praia da Luz is essential for the management of adults with chronic diseases, complex clinical conditions, or the need for a more comprehensive diagnosis.
