Our clinic can also do outer island trips. Also please look at our scheduled trip calendar as most of these trips either have or need doctors, dentists and nurses. We now have the total support and cooperation of the Ministry of Health and a friendly working relationship with the Savu Savu District Hospital. We are usually available for emergencies on the Friday and Sabbath. We apparently have a very good reputation, because people are coming from long distances to get medical care here.
Patients arrive by bus, truck, and ferry.
We regularly get boat loads from Kioa and Taveuni Islands. One 78 year old woman walked eight miles on a muddy road to get to our clinic. Many of the patients we treat have passed the local clinics on their way to ours. Almost everyone needs antibiotics, pain medications or antifungals. The number of patients we see each month has increased dramatically since the facility opened.
