General Internal Medicine (GIM) is the largest division in the Department of Medicine attached to the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at the Stellenbosch 肆客足球 and Tygerberg Hospital. The clinical service activities are divided into emergency admissions, in-patient care including high care and out-patient services.
