Introduction
In 2021, the Ministry of Health and Welfare initiated the formal implementation of a specialized system where specialists directly care for patients to ensure the stability and improvement of inpatient treatment quality.
The inpatient-specialized physician system involves specialists working in proximity to the wards, solely focusing on the overall care and management of inpatients without outpatient duties. Patients admitted for treatment have the opportunity for detailed consultations regarding their illness and treatment with the inpatient-specialized physicians in the Department of Integrated Medicine.
At Gachon University Gil Medical Center, the Department of Integrated Internal Medicine aims to provide the best possible care with a humble approach, focusing on patient-centered comprehensive treatment rather than just treating the disease, nurturing patients' hearts along the way.
