What is an internal medicine consultation?
One of the major sins of modern medicine is that the patient is no longer examined. Analyzes do not solve everything. Making a diagnosis starts from the discussion with the patient and his examination, after which, obviously, the necessary analyzes must be made to make a correct diagnosis. Any doctor of internal medicine must first talk to the patient, in order to focus on the suffering and needs of the patient. He must have a discussion that covers all aspects of the disease and the patient’s life, after which the patient must be examined. Following these maneuvers, ie the discussion and examination, the doctor has an idea of at least what needs to be done next and, depending on the assumptions of the diagnosis, knows what tests to ask to confirm the suspicion of disease or to refute it. Many diseases have similar symptoms and then you have to deny some possibilities and confirm new ones.
