Introduction: The foundation of good health

Family Medicine is the cornerstone of any healthcare system. It’s the first point of contact between doctor and patient, and the heart of comprehensive medical care. At IMED German Clinic Marbella, our family doctors offer a warm, personalized service tailored to every stage of life.

From newborns to seniors, our goal is to provide continuous support — diagnosing illnesses, preventing disease, and encouraging healthy habits.

In Marbella, where Spanish, British, German and many other European residents live together, having a family doctor who speaks your language and knows you personally makes all the difference.

What does a family doctor do?

The family doctor, such as Dr Amaldus Nilsen, is a specialist in comprehensive patient care. They do not focus on a single organ or system, but on the person as a whole, considering their environment, habits and emotional well-being.

At IMED German Clinic Marbella, our family doctors provide:

  • Diagnosis and treatment of common illnesses
    Fever, cough, muscle pain, respiratory or urinary infections, allergies, abdominal pain, etc.

  • Prevention and health promotion
    Health check-ups, vaccinations, blood pressure and cholesterol control, weight management.

  • Follow-up of chronic conditions
    Hypertension, diabetes, asthma, COPD, high cholesterol, thyroid diseases.

  • Coordination with specialists
    When specialized care is needed (cardiology, dermatology, gynecology…), the family doctor acts as coordinator, ensuring consistent medical follow-up.

  • Pediatric and family care
    Growth monitoring, vaccinations, nutrition, and child development.

  • Mental health support
    Initial management of anxiety, stress, or depression, and referral to psychology or psychiatry when required.

Personalized medicine for the whole family

At IMED German Clinic Marbella, we know that each person is unique. That’s why family medicine adapts to your individual circumstances, age, and lifestyle. Our approach isn’t just to cure, but to prevent and accompany.

We follow a patient-centered model, where listening, empathy, and time are priorities.

All consultations are available in Spanish, English, or German, ideal for our diverse international community.
