Is there any Specialization in Medicine
Answers
Answer:
In today’s climate of COVID-19, there has never been a more important time to be in the medical profession. While all healthcare workers are vital to the health and well-being of our society, certain physician specialties are on the front-lines of fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, and others to come. Their unique skill-sets are saving lives, and paving the way for how doctors approach medical care in the future.
Emergency medicine, Internal medicine, pulmonology and pulmonary critical care specialists are needed for their knowledge and experience with infectious disease and respiratory illness, especially with this particular virus and the complications and symptoms associated with it.
Anesthesiologistsare quickly able to assess a patient for surgery. They understand in detail both the illnesses a patient who is having surgery may be susceptible to, as well as the ramifications of the surgery itself on the patient.
Surgical Intensivists specialize in critically ill patients in an intensive care unit (ICU). Most COVID-19 patients are admitted into hospitals in fairly serious condition, and these physicians are directing and administering care for them.
It is here that specialization in a particular branch of medicine becomes a necessity. The major Specializations include General Medicine, General Surgery, Pediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Dermatology, Ophthalmology, Orthopedics, ENT (Ear, Nose and Throat), Psychiatry, Anesthesiology etc.
