Internal Medicine & Critical Care

A general physician diagnoses and treats adult illness across the whole body — fevers and infections, diabetes and blood-pressure control, thyroid and cholesterol problems, and symptoms like tiredness, weight change, or dizziness that need working up. They also coordinate care when more than one organ or specialist is involved.

Start with a physician when the problem is not clearly tied to one system — general unwellness, fever, fatigue, multiple mild symptoms, or a routine check of long-term conditions. They will investigate and refer you to the right specialist only if needed, which avoids unnecessary visits.

A physician-led health check combines a consultation with blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol, kidney and liver tests, a blood count, and an ECG, with additional tests based on your age and risk factors. These are useful yearly from your late 30s, or sooner with diabetes, hypertension, or a family history.

Both are managed with regular review of readings and blood tests, medication adjusted to target, and practical advice on diet, activity, and weight. The physician also screens for the eye, kidney, nerve, and heart complications that these conditions can cause, so problems are caught early.
