PSH Hospitals is emerging as a leading training center for international doctors, marked by the recent addition of Australian clinician Dr. Dylan Foskett to its developing cardiac program. Dr. Foskett’s move to Fiji reflects the hospital’s commitment to becoming a regional hub for advanced surgical techniques and specialized medical services.
Motivated by the hospital’s outstanding cardiac offerings and the skills of cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Sanjeev Khulbey, Dr. Foskett found the Nadi facility to be modern and well-maintained, comparable to healthcare standards he has known in Sydney. This smooth integration into the practical training environment has proven beneficial for his professional growth.
Dr. Foskett has praised the collaborative spirit among the hospital’s staff, particularly the teamwork between cardiology and cardiothoracic surgery departments. The effective communication and streamlined patient management he observed parallel operations in top-tier Australian facilities, further enhancing his training experience.
Training under the mentorship of Dr. Khulbey has marked a pivotal moment in Dr. Foskett’s career, as he has gained unparalleled hands-on experience observing intricate surgical procedures—opportunities he believes are scarce in larger medical systems.
Beyond the clinical setting, Dr. Foskett has embraced the friendly and inviting atmosphere of Fiji, which has eased his transition. He also noted that young Fijian clinicians benefit from remarkable opportunities to advance rapidly in their careers, arguing that smaller healthcare settings empower individuals to assume leadership roles early and shape their fields significantly.
Parvish Kumar, the Director and Founder of PSH, highlighted that Dr. Foskett’s journey is a testament to the hospital’s mission to elevate healthcare standards and stimulate collaboration across the Pacific region. He urged neighboring health services to leverage PSH as a training resource, promoting knowledge sharing to enhance the overall healthcare landscape.
With its strategic focus on advanced healthcare, PSH Hospitals continues to establish itself as a vital player within the Pacific, attracting specialists and generating interest from international medical communities across various fields, including cardiac care, neurosurgery, and orthopedics. This growth is not only beneficial for PSH but fosters a more interconnected healthcare environment regionally, paving the way for higher medical standards and better patient outcomes.
