Indicator Summary

Overview

Surgeons, Obstetricians and Gynecologists (OB&GY), Physicians, and Pediatricians are specialized medical professionals, each focusing on distinct areas of healthcare. Surgeons perform operative procedures to treat diseases, injuries, and deformities. They use invasive methods to remove or repair damaged tissues or organs. Obstetricians and Gynecologists (OB&GY) specialize in women’s reproductive health. Obstetricians handle pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care, while gynaecologists focus on conditions of the female reproductive system. Physicians provide general medical care, diagnosing and treating a broad range of illnesses in adults. They focus on internal medicine, addressing everything from acute to chronic conditions without surgery. Pediatricians specialize in the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. They monitor physical, behavioural, and mental health, ensuring proper development and treating childhood illnesses. Together, these roles ensure comprehensive healthcare across all stages of life, from prenatal care to elderly medical needs.
