Doctors in this clinic

All doctors

When should you see an internist or GI doctor?

  • Frequent heartburn or acid reflux
  • Stomach pain or bloating
  • Constipation or diarrhoea lasting several days
  • A change in your usual bowel habits
  • Diabetes or high blood pressure follow-up
  • High cholesterol
  • Yellowing of the skin or eyes, or abnormal liver tests
  • Ongoing tiredness or unexplained weight loss

How does an internist manage a long-term condition?

Conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure are managed over many visits, not one. The doctor reviews your readings and test results, asks about your diet, activity and current medicines, and agrees a clear follow-up plan with you, including when to come back.

It helps to bring any blood pressure or sugar readings you’ve taken at home, along with your medicine boxes or a list of them. Some blood tests need you to fast beforehand, so ask when you book whether that applies to you.

Which digestive symptoms need emergency care?

Most stomach and bowel problems are managed in clinic with regular follow-up. Some signs, however, need urgent hospital care. Call the Saudi Red Crescent on 997 or go straight to the nearest hospital emergency department if you have:

  • Vomiting blood or dark material that looks like coffee grounds
  • Black, tar-like stools or obvious blood in the stool
  • Sudden, severe abdominal pain or a rigid, hard belly
  • Persistent vomiting and being unable to keep fluids down
  • Sudden yellowing of the eyes with fever or confusion

Common questions

What’s the difference between a GP and an internist?

An internist specialises in adult medical conditions, especially long-term ones that affect more than one body system. A GP deals with a broad range of everyday complaints and helps decide which specialty you need. If you’re unsure which to book, our team can help.

Can I have an endoscopy or colonoscopy?

The doctor will first decide whether you need one at all, since many digestive problems are diagnosed through examination and blood tests. If a scope is recommended, ask our team on 920020166 whether it can be arranged at the polyclinic.

Do I need to fast before my appointment?

Not for the consultation itself. Some blood tests, such as fasting blood sugar, do require it. If you expect the doctor to order tests, ask when you book. Don’t stop any regular medicine on your own before speaking to your doctor.
