The AHL Division of General Internal Medicine comprises more than 400 general medicine physicians who are involved in clinical practice, teaching and training, research, innovation, and scholarship.

General Medicine

The Department of General Medicine deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and non-surgical treatment of various diseases. It serves as the first point of contact whenever a patient visits the hospital. A general physician conducts a physical examination of the patient and then recommends necessary tests and diagnostic procedures. The results of these tests, the general physical examination, and symptoms are then correlated to arrive at a final diagnosis. Depending on the final diagnosis, the general physician gives the necessary treatment (usually medication) to the patient or refers to a specialty department for further treatment. The department is favored by a multitude of people owing to its convenience as a one-stop solution, combined with talented specialists, modern diagnostic services, and a 24-hour pharmacy.
