Adult disease prevention and chronic condition management.

Internal Medicine Consultations Without the Wait


When symptoms are complex or health concerns involve multiple organ systems, Internal Medicine provides a practical starting point.


At Patient First Medical Clinic and Diagnostics Center, our Internal Medicine doctors offer walk-in consultations to help adults manage chronic conditions, unclear symptoms, and multi-system diseases—all without the need for a referral.


Whether you need a routine follow-up or a fresh evaluation, our physicians provide expert, focused care.



What Is Internal Medicine—and When to See a Specialist


Internal Medicine focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and non-surgical management of adult diseases. Internists (also known as Internal Medicine doctors) are trained to handle complex or long-term medical conditions that affect internal organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, and endocrine system.


Patients often visit Internal Medicine for:


  • Hypertension or diabetes follow-up

  • Symptoms that don’t clearly point to one organ system

  • Medication adjustments or lab monitoring

  • Care coordination across specialties (e.g., cardiology, endocrinology)


If you're experiencing fatigue, unexplained weight changes, irregular lab results, or ongoing discomfort without a known cause, Internal Medicine may be the most appropriate specialty to consult.



Common Conditions and Symptoms We Manage


Our Internal Medicine doctors assess and manage a wide range of conditions, including:


  • Hypertension (high blood pressure)

  • Type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance

  • High cholesterol (dyslipidemia)

  • Fatigue, body weakness, and weight changes

  • Generalized pain or malaise

  • Gout and uric acid-related joint pain

  • Thyroid disorders (e.g., hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism)

  • Acid reflux or chronic gastritis (in coordination with Gastro)

  • Asthma and mild respiratory symptoms

  • Coordination of care for patients with multiple chronic diseases


Each consultation includes a careful review of symptoms, lifestyle, risk factors, and laboratory findings. Follow-up plans are explained clearly, and referrals to other specialists are made when necessary.

Consult with Our Internal Medicine Physician


Our internists approach every case with a detailed and patient-centered mindset. Whether you’re visiting for the first time or continuing care, your doctor will take time to understand your history and discuss your goals.


This specialty is ideal for patients who require close monitoring or whose conditions affect several body systems at once. Internists also serve as primary care providers for adult patients managing multiple health issues.

Diagnostic Support for Internal Medicine Cases


Many Internal Medicine concerns require supporting diagnostics. At Patient First, your doctor may request:


  • CBC, fasting blood sugar, and HbA1c

  • Lipid profile and uric acid tests

  • Liver and kidney function tests

  • ECG (especially for hypertensive or diabetic patients)

  • Thyroid function tests (TSH, FT3, FT4)

  • Chest X-ray or abdominal ultrasound (if indicated)


Our DOH-accredited laboratory and imaging services allow for timely test results, often within the same day, to support your diagnosis and treatment plan.

Patient First is recognized by nearly all HMO Service Providers in the Philippines.
