Medicine (Internal Medicine) is a specialty that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. It covers a wide range of conditions, including heart diseases, diabetes, respiratory disorders, and digestive issues. Physicians in this field, called internists, specialize in managing chronic illnesses and providing comprehensive care.
