* ''[[Addiction medicine]]'' deals with the treatment of addiction.
* ''[[Medical ethics]]'' deals with [[ethic]]al and [[moral]] principles that apply values and judgments to the practice of medicine.
* ''[[Biomedical Engineering]]'' is a field dealing with the application of [[engineering]] principles to medical practice.
* ''[[Clinical pharmacology]]'' is concerned with how systems of [[therapeutics]] interact with patients.
* ''[[Conservation medicine]]'' studies the relationship between human and animal health, and environmental conditions. Also known as ecological medicine, [[environmental medicine]], or [[medical geology]].
* ''[[Disaster medicine]]'' deals with medical aspects of emergency preparedness, disaster mitigation and management.
* ''[[Diving medicine]]'' (or [[hyperbaric medicine]]) is the prevention and treatment of diving-related problems.
* ''[[Evolutionary medicine]]'' is a perspective on medicine derived through applying [[Evolution|evolutionary theory]].
* ''[[Forensic medicine]]'' deals with medical questions in [[legal]] context, such as determination of the time and cause of death, type of weapon used to inflict trauma, reconstruction of the facial features using remains of deceased (skull) thus aiding identification.
* ''[[Gender-based medicine]]'' studies the biological and physiological differences between the human sexes and how that affects differences in disease.

* ''[[Laser medicine]]'' involves the use of lasers in the diagnostics or treatment of various conditions.
* ''[[Medical humanities]]'' includes the [[humanities]] ([[literature]], [[philosophy]], [[ethics]], history and religion), [[social science]] ([[anthropology]], [[cultural studies]], [[psychology]], [[sociology]]), and the arts ([[literature]], theater, film, and [[visual arts]]) and their application to [[medical education]] and practice.
* ''[[Health informatics]]'' is a relatively recent field that deal with the application of computers and [[information technology]] to medicine.
* ''[[Nosology]]'' is the classification of diseases for various purposes.
* ''[[Nosokinetics]]'' is the science/subject of measuring and modelling the process of care in health and social care systems.
* ''[[Occupational medicine]]'' is the provision of health advice to organizations and individuals to ensure that the highest standards of health and safety at work can be achieved and maintained.
* ''[[Pain management]]'' (also called ''[[pain medicine]]'', or ''algiatry'') is the medical discipline concerned with the relief of pain.
* ''[[Pharmacogenomics]]'' is a form of ''individualized medicine''.
* ''[[Podiatry|Podiatric medicine]]'' is the study of, diagnosis, and medical treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle, lower limb, hip and lower back.
* ''[[Sexual medicine]]'' is concerned with diagnosing, assessing and treating all disorders related to sexuality.
* ''[[Sports medicine]]'' deals with the treatment and prevention and rehabilitation of sports/exercise injuries such as [[muscle spasm]]s, [[muscle tear]]s, injuries to ligaments (ligament tears or ruptures) and their repair in [[sportsperson|athletes]], [[amateur]] and [[professional]].
* ''[[Therapeutics]]'' is the field, more commonly referenced in earlier periods of history, of the various remedies that can be used to treat disease and promote health.
* ''[[Travel medicine]]'' or ''emporiatrics'' deals with health problems of international travelers or travelers across highly different environments.
* ''[[Tropical medicine]]'' deals with the prevention and treatment of tropical diseases. It is studied separately in temperate climates where those diseases are quite unfamiliar to medical practitioners and their local clinical needs.
* ''[[Urgent care]]'' focuses on delivery of unscheduled, walk-in care outside of the hospital emergency department for injuries and illnesses that are not severe enough to require care in an emergency department. In some jurisdictions this function is combined with the emergency department.
* [[Veterinary medicine]]; [[veterinarians]] apply similar techniques as physicians to the care of animals.
* ''[[Wilderness medicine (practice)|Wilderness medicine]]'' entails the practice of medicine in the wild, where conventional medical facilities may not be available.
