Pronunciation: [hˈɛlθ d͡ʒɪˈɒɡɹəfi] (IPA) 
Health geography is a multidisciplinary field that studies the relationships between health and places. It aims to explore the impact of a person's physical and social environment on their well-being. Synonyms for health geography include medical geography, spatial epidemiology, and geomedicine. Medical geography is primarily focused on the spatial distribution of diseases and healthcare services, while spatial epidemiology analyzes the distribution and determinants of health outcomes. In contrast, geomedicine refers to the use of geographical information systems (GIS) and remote sensing techniques in medical research. All these fields are closely related and share the same goal of understanding the complex interactions between health and geography.
