ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT

The Department of Medicine is based in Roskilde and has specialized functions within respiratory medicine, infectious diseases and nephrology.

Patients with general, non-specialized medical disorders are predominantly treated at other hospitals in the region.
The department in Roskilde has three wards with a total of 59 beds, and outpatient activities in four geographic sites within the Region of Zealand.
