Fiji College of General Practitioners (FCGP) Conference

I was honored to be a guest speaker at the FCGP Conference in May, held at the beautiful Crowne Plaza Resort in Wailoaloa, Nadi, where I shared insights on the life-changing minimally invasive treatments offered by Interventional Radiology (IR).

I discussed how IR provides safe, effective alternatives to traditional surgery for common conditions, emphasizing benefits like:
✅ No large incisions or scars
✅ Faster recovery times
✅ Avoiding general anesthesia in many cases
Some of the key treatments I highlighted included:
🔹 Uterine Artery Embolization (UAE) for fibroids – A game-changer for women’s health.
🔹 Peripheral artery angioplasty for diabetic foot – Saving limbs and improving quality of life.
🔹 Radiofrequency ablation for thyroid & prostate conditions – Precision treatment with minimal downtime.

The physicians were highly engaged, with many thought-provoking discussions on how these cutting-edge IR techniques could greatly benefit patients in Fiji, reducing the need for invasive surgeries.
Grateful for this incredible opportunity to connect with Fiji’s medical community at and spread awareness about the power of Interventional Radiology. Excited to see how these advancements can improve patient care in Fiji!
