Internal Medicine Doctor Near Me — South Delhi

What an internal medicine physician does

An internal medicine specialist (internist) is the primary adult-care doctor — trained to diagnose and manage the full range of internal disease in adults. Every visit includes a full history, focused examination, review of medications and reports, a working diagnosis, and a written plan. Tests are ordered only when they change management.

Conditions managed

Type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetes, high blood pressure, thyroid (hypo and hyper), fatty liver and abnormal LFTs, dyslipidemia, fever and viral illness, dengue and typhoid, post-COVID syndromes, asthma and chronic cough, anaemia, vitamin deficiencies, obesity and metabolic syndrome, supervised GLP-1 therapy (Ozempic, Mounjaro), and unexplained multi-system symptoms that need a generalist's view.

Why patients choose an internist as their primary doctor

Continuity of care across years. One doctor who knows your full history, medications and family context — not a series of single-organ specialists working in isolation. Referrals are made when they add value, not by default, and the internist remains the coordinator throughout.

Frequently asked

Who is the best internal medicine doctor near me in South Delhi?

Dr. Sanjay Sachdev (MBBS, MNAMS) is a senior internal medicine physician with 35+ years of practice and clinics at C-58 Friends Colony East and Maharani Bagh Community Centre. Patients across Friends Colony, Maharani Bagh, Defence Colony, GK, Nizamuddin, Jangpura and Noida consult him for diagnosis, chronic disease management and second opinions.

What is internal medicine and how is it different from general medicine?

Internal medicine and general medicine refer to the same adult-care specialty in India — the diagnosis, non-surgical treatment and long-term management of disease in adults. An internal medicine physician (internist) is your first-line doctor for any new symptom, chronic illness, abnormal report or multi-system problem before a sub-specialist is needed.

What does an internal medicine specialist treat?

Diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disease, fever and infections (dengue, typhoid, flu, COVID), fatty liver, cholesterol, asthma, post-COVID care, weight management and GLP-1 therapy, anaemia, gut and acidity issues, preventive health, and complex undiagnosed cases. The internist also coordinates referrals to cardiology, gastroenterology, endocrinology and others when sub-specialty input adds value.

When should I see an internist instead of a sub-specialist?

Start with an internal medicine doctor for any new symptom, unexplained illness, more than one issue at once, or before agreeing to a procedure. An internist looks at the whole picture, avoids unnecessary tests, and refers only when a sub-specialist genuinely changes the plan — saving time, cost and over-treatment.

Is Dr. Sachdev's internal medicine clinic open today?

Yes. Both clinics are open Monday to Saturday, 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM, by appointment. Same-day slots are usually available for acute illness. WhatsApp +91 98110 78388 to confirm the next opening at Friends Colony or Maharani Bagh.

What is the consultation fee for an internal medicine consult?

Fee is shared at the time of booking. Call or WhatsApp +91 98110 78388 for current consultation fees at Friends Colony and Maharani Bagh. Cash, UPI and card accepted.
