For your medical internships in India, you have the opportunity to work in Bangalore at either large urban hospitals or clinics in semi-rural areas. The types of patient conditions you will encounter will vary considerably based on the type of facility as well as the location. For example, in a large modern specialty hospital, you would primarily work in one department (of your choosing) such as pediatrics or cardiology. At smaller clinics, patients will present with a range of issues such as tropical diseases (malaria, typhoid), prenatal checkups, cardiac care, cancer, respiratory problems, injuries/accidents, etc.
