More good news for members of the Shree Sanatan Dharm Pratinidhi Sabha of Fiji as they will now be able to take advantage of special discounts on other medical procedures at Pacific Specialist Healthcare Hospitals in Nadi and Suva.

This comes as a Memorandum of Understanding between the Sabha and PSH was signed, which Sabha President Dhirendra Nand says is part of a 20-year road map for bigger reforms and strategic planning.

While speaking at the inaugural Sanatan Gala Night during the 63rd Sanatan Convention at Girmit Multicultural Centre in Lautoka, Nand says the Sabha is taking a new direction to improve and enhance the livelihoods of all it's members through such initiatives.

Sabha Executive Director Shayal Shikha says this is apart from the reduced General Practitioner consultation fees of $7.50 for Sanatan followers with free services for those above the age of 65-years.

She says the presence of two Sabha executives on the PSH Hospitals Foundation board will further cement the relationship between them and the world-class hospital in various areas of interest in terms of medical services.

PSH Hospitals Operations Manager Ritesh Kumar who was the chief guest at the Gala Night says the Sanatan community has always stood tall as a pillar of cultural preservation, moral grounding and collective strength.

He says he sees first-hand these values of service, discipline, compassion and unity at the heart of healthcare and medical services.
