In an era where affordable healthcare often feels out of reach, Pacific Specialist Healthcare (PSH Hospitals) is changing the game. With a steadfast commitment to affordable, high-quality care and continuous innovation, this leading institution is redefining medical services in Fiji while setting a new benchmark for a healthier Pacific.

A Vision Rooted in Compassion and Innovation

Founded on the belief that quality healthcare should be accessible to everyone regardless of background or income, PSH Hospitals is driven by a passion to make a difference. Founder and CEO Parvish Kumar explains:

“Every Fijian, every Pacific Islander is human—we share the same pain, hope, and struggle. We deserve access to the same medical breakthroughs that save lives and ease suffering. PSH Hospitals’ goal is to ensure that no one in the Pacific is deprived of the advancements that can heal us all.”

This philosophy is evident in every facet of the hospital’s operations, from breakthrough surgical procedures to community-driven initiatives that empower patients and improve overall well-being.

Comprehensive Treatments for Every Need

PSH Hospitals offers an extensive suite of treatments designed to cater to every aspect of patient care. The hospital is renowned for its complex open-heart surgeries and intricate brain tumour removals, providing life-saving procedures once only available abroad.

It also employs cutting-edge diagnostic tools such as PillCam technology for non-invasive gastrointestinal examinations and state-of-the-art imaging techniques for early detection of various conditions. Additionally, PSH delivers essential primary care services including low-cost GP consultations, routine diagnostic tests like ECGs, chest X-rays, and full blood counts, as well as preventive health screenings.

With plans to introduce advanced radiation therapy for cancer treatment and further enhancements in minimally invasive procedures, PSH Hospitals ensures that every patient receives comprehensive, world-class care under one roof.

Breakthroughs That Make a Difference

Pioneering Medical Procedures

PSH Hospitals has become renowned for performing complex open-heart surgeries and intricate brain tumour removals—procedures once available only abroad. The hospital’s state-of-the-art facilities and world-class expertise now allow patients to receive life-saving care locally.

“We are proud to say that treatments which once required travel overseas can now be done here in Fiji, keeping families together and reducing financial burdens,” Kumar adds.

Rapid Innovation in Diagnostics and Treatment

Embracing the latest advancements, PSH Hospitals introduces new treatments every three weeks. The use of innovative diagnostic tools, such as PillCam technology, provides non-invasive and comfortable options for early detection and intervention.

Affordable, Patient-Centric Care

In a landmark initiative, the hospital has slashed GP consultation fees to just $7.50 for all Fijians, with consultations offered completely free for those aged 65 and above. Coupled with flexible “get well now, pay later” options and lower costs for essential diagnostic tests, these measures ensure that quality care is within everyone’s reach.

“We believe that financial constraints should never be a barrier to receiving critical care,” says Kumar.

Stories of Hope

At PSH Hospitals, patient stories exemplify the profound impact of accessible, quality healthcare. Consider Waisale Soqonakalau, an open-heart surgery patient who expresses heartfelt gratitude to PSH for providing him with a renewed lease on life. Similarly, Kaushalia Naidu endured three years of swollen legs and mobility challenges without finding an effective treatment.

After receiving care at PSH Hospitals, she has regained her ability to work and enjoy daily activities. These personal narratives underscore PSH Hospitals' commitment to combining medical excellence with compassionate service, transforming healthcare into both a science and an art of healing. Expanding Horizons Across the Pacific.

PSH Hospitals is not confined by borders. Its ambitious plans include launching next-generation cancer care by introducing radiation therapy for cancer treatment—an essential tool in the fight against the disease.

In addition, the hospital is committed to enhancing diagnostic and surgical services. With ongoing investments in advanced imaging and minimally invasive techniques, PSH Hospitals aims to further improve patient outcomes and reduce recovery times.

The hospital also plans a robust regional outreach to extend its services to rural and remote communities, bridging existing healthcare gaps and ensuring that high-quality care reaches every Pacific Island.

Furthermore, in alignment with Fiji’s National Development Plan, PSH Hospitals is set to boost both the economy and regional medical capabilities by attracting medical tourists and cultivating local healthcare talent through specialized training programs.

The PSH Foundation: Building a Sustainable Future

Complementing its clinical services, PSH Hospitals is launching the PSH Foundation—a dedicated initiative to support patients facing financial hardships. The Foundation will help sustain the hospital’s mission of equitable care and ensure that every life benefits from its groundbreaking services.

“Our Foundation is about giving back. It’s a promise that no one will be turned away because they cannot pay,” Kumar remarks.

A Beacon of Hope for the Pacific

With round-the-clock accessibility, a dedicated team that treats every patient like family, and a relentless drive for innovation, PSH Hospitals is more than just a medical facility—it’s a beacon of hope for a healthier, more prosperous Pacific.

As Fiji and its neighbouring communities confront modern healthcare challenges, PSH Hospitals stands ready to lead the way, saving lives and transforming futures one breakthrough at a time. This
