DEPARTMENT OF INTERNAL MEDICINE
Internal
Medicine Department is one of the pioneer departments at the inception of the
hospital in 2000. The department attends to adult patients with medical illnesses
by coordinating and running medical out-patients’ clinics, medical emergency,
renal care centre and infectious diseases isolation centre. What started as a
small department with no specialist in Internal Medicine has expanded to become
a department with many consultant physicians who are providing specialist medical
care in Cardiology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology, Pulmonology, Nephrology
and Neurology. The department also engages in training of medical house
officers and is in the process of obtaining accreditation for residency training
of post graduate medical doctors. The department is currently led by Dr. Amina Lawal Bello who is a fellow of the National Postgraduate Medical College of Nigeria
in Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism.
