Internists specialize in the health of internal organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract, and they are highly trained in managing even complex medical conditions.

At Mavie Med hospitals, our internists work closely with experts from many other medical specialties. This interdisciplinary approach is especially valuable when treating patients with multiple or complicated health concerns. For many patients, the internist is the primary point of contact throughout their care journey, coordinating all necessary diagnostic and therapeutic steps and ensuring smooth communication and collaboration among all involved specialists.

Our services include preventive screenings, chronic disease management, and comprehensive in hospital care with a focus on cardiology, gastroenterology and oncology.

Endocrinology and metabolism

Endocrinology and metabolism is an important area within internal medicine that focuses on conditions related to hormones and the body’s metabolism. These include problems with glands that produce hormones, such as the thyroid, pancreas, or adrenal glands. Our experts treat diabetes, thyroid disorders, reproductive hormone issues, and metabolic bone diseases like osteoporosis.

The thyroid gland plays a major role in the metabolism, growth and development and regulates many body functions. In recent years, there has been a marked increase in inflammatory diseases of the thyroid and, subsequently, also of thyroid cancer. But survival rates are also improving. Thanks to earlier diagnosis, personalised treatment, and advanced imaging techniques, more people than ever are leading full and healthy lives after a thyroid cancer diagnosis.

Pulmonology

Mavie Med hospitals offer a wide range of modern diagnostic tools. With strong medical expertise and close teamwork across specialties, we ensure the best possible treatment for lung and respiratory conditions.

At the Lung Center, patients with lung cancer receive comprehensive support from a multidisciplinary tumor board. If surgery is needed, minimally invasive techniques are used to keep the procedure as gentle as possible.

Our Sleep Laboratories provide an ideal setting for diagnosing and treating sleep apnea.
