Family Medicine

Family medicine provides continuous and comprehensive medical services in relation to primary health problems regardless of the location or condition of the health problems to family members and regardless of age or sex.

The field of family medicine always takes care of its patients with continuous responsibility whether they are sick or healthy and provides comprehensive healthcare encompassing a large part of medical services. This includes not only the treatment of acute diseases but also the control of chronic diseases, preventive examinations, health improvement and patient education.

When dealing with an individual patient, this department always considers the entire family’s health and the background of the family to treat the patients in line with their individual needs. Family doctors who are specialists in family medicine are trained in internal medicine, surgery, podiatry, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, psychiatry and a wide range of other major clinical subject areas.

Family doctors are equally equipped with abilities to solve health problems resulting from not only physical problems but also mental, psychological or social problems. In case consultations from specialized areas, family doctors cooperate with other medical teams to come up with the most appropriate treatment to solve health problems.

Family doctors provide continuous and comprehensive healthcare centered on individual family members as well as the entire family unit. When you feel uncomfortable but do not know where you have problems or when you don't know which clinical department you should visit, please visit the area of family medicine first.

Family medicine not only treats diseases but also operates a health improvement clinic dealing with quitting smoking and dealing with obesity. A geriatric clinic was also established that comprehensively diagnoses and treats the growing number of elderly patients in the country.
