Welcome to the Department of Internal Medicine. Our department stands at the heart of clinical medicine, dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, and management of adult diseases through evidence-based practice and compassionate care.
We are committed to training medical students and clinicians who possess strong clinical acumen, ethical integrity, and a deep sense of responsibility toward patient welfare. Through rigorous clinical rotations, mentorship, and exposure to diverse medical conditions, we prepare our learners to handle complex health challenges with professionalism and empathy.
Our faculty members are actively engaged in patient care, teaching, and research — ensuring that our students benefit from both academic excellence and real-world clinical experience. Together, we strive to produce competent physicians who are lifelong learners, innovators, and leaders in the medical profession.
The Department of Internal Medicine is grounded in the philosophy that medicine is both a science and a service — rooted in knowledge, compassion, and humanity. We believe that excellence in internal medicine arises from the integration of clinical reasoning, ethical judgment, and a holistic understanding of the patient.
Our philosophical foundation rests on the following principles:
-
Patient-Centered Care: Placing the patient at the core of all clinical decisions, guided by empathy, respect, and ethical practice.
-
Scientific Inquiry: Promoting evidence-based medicine through critical thinking, research, and continuous learning.
-
Professionalism: Upholding integrity, accountability, and excellence in clinical practice and medical education.
-
Holistic Approach: Viewing health as a dynamic interaction of biological, psychological, and social factors that require comprehensive management.
-
Community Responsibility: Committing to address both individual and public health challenges through prevention, advocacy, and service.
Through this philosophy, the Department of Internal Medicine seeks to nurture clinicians who combine scientific expertise with compassionate service — physicians who not only treat disease but also care for the whole person and contribute meaningfully to the advancement of healthcare.
