Internal medicine
Prevention, diagnostics and non-surgical treatment of internal organ diseases
An internal examination gives an overview of general health, while a specialist pulmonologist provides the patient with a detailed insight into the condition of the respiratory organs. At the Moj Lab Polyclinic, we have doctors whose great expertise, reinforced by the most modern, sophisticated devices, provides a reliable support for patients.
Diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, preventive examinations, as well as check-ups after COVID-19 infection, are now performed in our polyclinic by Dr. Nena Milačić, internist pulmonologist, who occupies a respectable place in her profession thanks to her expertise and experience.

In the words of the associates
Ever since the beginning, my engagement in the Moj Lab Polyclinic has been a great challenge, because I am part of a team with a vision of creating a modern clinical practice. This implies the implementation of a series of diagnostic and therapeutic protocols and procedures that will provide the highest level of health care.

In the Moj Lab Polyclinic, we utilise the state-of-the-art technological equipment to enable very fast and simple diagnostics and determination of precise therapy, in a way that allows the patient to perform all the necessary examinations in one place in a short time. With our commitment to the patient, the treatment and monitoring of response to therapy are safe and effective.

Numerous infectious diseases pose a real challenge for the doctors, which applies to both – infectious diseases with the same clinical symptoms, or a single disease that manifests differently. Timely identification of a possible cause, adequate and quick reaction are a crucial factor in healing, and in the case of severe infections, they save lives. With the acquired knowledge, enriched by decades of experience, and the precise diagnostics of the new generation that is available in the Moj Lab Polyclinic, I am dedicated to those who have entrusted us with the task of taking care of their health with a lot of confidence.

Dedication, commitment, experience in many years of work with patients suffering from infectious diseases and all the necessary diagnostic tools are available at Moj Lab Polyclinic. Timely reporting to the doctor and quick diagnosis are the key to successful treatment and prevention of many complications. In no branch of medicine can the results of therapy be seen as quickly as in most infectious diseases. Every smile on the face of a cured patient is a blessing for us doctors, a source of new energy.

I am sure that I will contribute to the prevention and successful treatment of patients at the Moj Lab polyclinic with my knowledge and experience. I look forward to joining a team that is synonymous with a dedicated, progressive and modern approach to the patient.

“Along with modern equipment and advanced technologies, the knowledge, experience and commitment of the team of doctors and nurses at the Moj Lab Polyclinic provide a good opportunity for prevention, early detection and successful treatment of digestive diseases.”

It is a pleasure to work on the state-of-the-art equipment and with the latest protocols in the region, which are used here at Moj Lab. Our patients get BMD, FRAX INDEX and TBS SCORE with the smallest amounts of radiation possible, to the satisfaction of both the patient and the attending physician.

For me as a physician, it is a professional satisfaction that my knowledge and experience, supported by the latest-generation technology, can provide our patients with disease diagnostics and control on a par with that offered by the most modern European medical centers.

I am happy to be part of the Moj Lab Polyclinic team and to have a chance to work in an extremely pleasant environment, with modern equipment and advanced technologies. The excellent conditions providing our patients with prevention, diagnostics and treatment of diseases of the endocrine system and metabolism give me reason to feel additional enthusiasm.
