  • Respiratory symptoms.
  • Blood pressure changes.
  • Follow-up for common health conditions.
  • Medical assessment of new symptoms.

  • Requesting prescriptions.
  • Medical check-ups.
  • Medical review.

Prevention and healthcare

Medical care is not only about treating an illness when it appears. Prevention and follow-up are also essential for looking after our health.

Medical check-ups help assess the patient’s overall condition, detect possible risk factors, and provide guidance on the measures needed to maintain healthy lifestyle habits.

That is why, in General Medicine, we can support you both when you have a specific concern and when you want to monitor your health.

A medical assessment for each person

Each patient is different, and so are their needs. That is why the consultation begins by listening to what is happening, what your symptoms are, and what you need.

Based on this assessment, the healthcare professional can guide the diagnosis, recommend the appropriate measures or treatments, and provide the necessary follow-up. When the case requires another specialist, a referral to the relevant medical area can be considered.
