The Department of Medicine (MED) of Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital (PYNEH) is committed to provide comprehensive quality services and holistic care to our patients and community. MED has 12 subspecialty teams, including Cardiology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology & Hepatology, Geriatric Medicine, Haematology, Nephrology, Neurology, Respiratory Medicine, Rheumatology and Infectious Disease, which offer diverse and comprehensive service to patients.
