Healthcare Providers and Medical Specialists
Your government provides several essential health services that you should know about: feeding programs for elementary students, immunization for infants and children over 2, prenatal care for mothers and babies, free maternity clinics, and family planning programs.
When you need specialized care, different physicians focus on specific areas of health. Pediatricians treat children, psychiatrists handle mental health, and obstetricians care for pregnant women. Ophthalmologists focus on eye problems, while dermatologists treat skin conditions.
Other specialists include cardiologists (heart experts), allergists (allergy specialists), pulmonologists (lung doctors), neurologists (nervous system), gastroenterologists (digestive system), geriatricians (elderly care), surgeons (operations), and urologists (reproductive organs).
Remember: Each specialist has years of training in their specific field - don't hesitate to ask for referrals when you need expert care!
