Treatment and Services

At the Division of General Medicine of MGMCH, we invest our efforts, time, and expertise to detect and treat various types of Ailments.

  • Sepsis Sepsis arises when chemicals discharged into the circulation system to fight the disease trigger inflammatory responses. This aggravation can trigger a course of changes that can harm different organ systems and cause them to fail.
  • Multi-Organ Failure Multi-organ failure is usually caused due to Sepsis. It is also known as Total Organ Failure. Organ failure is the dysfunction of vital organs to such an extent that normal homeostasis cannot be maintained without external medical intervention.
  • Respiratory Failure Respiratory failure happens when fluid builds up in the air sacs of your lungs. Your lungs cannot discharge oxygen into your blood. Organs can’t get enough oxygen-rich blood to work. The conditions can be acute or chronic. Respiratory failure can lead to death if not treated quickly.
  • Acute Renal Failure Acute renal failure happens when your kidney loses the ability to eliminate excess salt from the blood. Salt concentration can rise to high levels when the kidney loses its filtering ability. Acute renal failure is also known as acute kidney failure.
  • Post-Surgical Complications After a surgery is performed a patient needs close monitoring. Based on the type of surgery performed and medical history, patients may show post-surgical complications. These include shock, hemorrhage, wound infection, reaction to anesthesia, and many more.

FAQs

Primary care physicians (PCPs) are similar to coaches, directing and coordinating all aspects of your health care – physical, emotional and mental. They listen to your questions, assess symptoms, recommend treatment approaches, prescribe medication and refer you to the proper specialist when needed.

It's important to have a primary care physician. They get to know you, your history and your family health history. Building a long-term relationship with your PCP can translate to major health benefits over your lifetime, such as lower overall health costs, a decrease in hospital and ER visits, and better management of chronic diseases.

Your primary care physician can identify health issues in their early stages before they become major problems. They offer preventive care such as immunizations, regular imaging & lab testing, such as cholesterol, blood pressure, flu shots and cancer screenings, as well as diet and lifestyle advice to maintain or improve your health.

Be open and honest with your physician regarding what’s going on with your health. Don’t hold back if something is bothering you.
