Internal medicine is the comprehensive medical specialty that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and aftercare of diseases of the internal organs and the entire organism. It forms the core of non-surgical medicine and is the basic discipline on which many other specializations are based. In our practice Internal medicine<\/b> is the basis on which Dr. Raphael Bruno's specialized cardiological and sports medical care rests in order to guarantee you holistic and well-founded care.<\/p>

The spectrum of internal medicine: more than just organs<\/b><\/p>

The Internal medicine<\/b> views the human being as a complex overall system in which all organs and metabolic processes are interconnected. It is not limited to a single organ system, but requires a broad knowledge of the diverse functions and potential disorders of the entire body. This broad spectrum enables the specialist in internal medicine to often act as a \u201emedical detective\u201c in the case of unclear complaints and to recognize the connections between different symptoms.<\/p>

The holistic approach to internal medicine<\/b><\/p>

A core principle that the Internal medicine<\/b> is its holistic approach. Instead of looking at a single symptom in isolation, the internist looks for systemic causes and interactions. High blood pressure is not just seen as a number on the meter, but is assessed in the context of kidney function, hormone status, cardiac performance and lifestyle factors.
