Internal medicine physicians are specialists who apply scientific knowledge and clinical expertise to the diagnosis, treatment, and compassionate care of adults across the spectrum from health to complex illness.

​

When you seek care from the Ashoka Sanjeevini Division of General Internal Medicine, you will find doctors and advanced practice providers dedicated to understanding and managing all aspects of the general health care of adults. You'll also be offered preventive care and disease prevention strategies to help you maintain a healthy lifestyle.

​

Your care is provided in a clinical environment supported by education and research that yields new medical advances and treatments. Your general internal medicine team provides seamless referral to specialists and services. This method of comprehensive care ensures that you get exactly the care you need.
 

Ashoka Sanjeevini's general internal medicine professionals focus on:

• Comprehensive care for people with undefined symptoms — such as shortness of breath, chest pain, abdominal pain and back pain — who need help in diagnosing their illness

• Collaboration, which means you may be referred to a surgeon or other doctor on Ashoka Sanjeevini's multispecialty team of experts

• Preventive medicine care, such as mammograms, Pap smears, cholesterol screening and blood pressure screening

• Communication with your local primary care doctor about ongoing care after you return home, which is especially important if you have one or more chronic medical illnesses, such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
   

You might also access the hospital's wide range of services for comprehensive health and well-being, including the Executive Health Program, integrative medicine and health, palliative medicine, women's health, the Healthy Living Program and the Nicotine Dependence Center.
