Dr. Amit Persad aspires to be one of the world’s best brain surgeons. In an era of rapidly evolving medical technology, this task requires
innovative life-saving treatments. Dr. Persad wants to provide patients with these options here in Saskatchewan at Royal University Hospital (RUH).
Just imagine. You know the specialized equipment you are working with is reaching its end of life, yet each and every day, anxious patients with life-threatening heart conditions are relying on your help. This time, I need your help.
“I try to treat people, the way I would like to be treated.”
These are powerful words in health care. We want to know that our loved ones, or even we ourselves will be treated with respect, compassion and kindness when we are at our most vulnerable.
It’s been a lifelong journey of nursing service that has surpassed a half-century. And the trek isn’t over yet for Beverly Pavelich whose professional home has been Royal University Hospital for all but a couple of those years.
Dr. Janine Eckstein, Interventional Cardiologist, received her medical degree in Internal Medicine and Cardiology at the University of Saskatchewan. She knew early in her career that she wanted to sub-specialize in Interventional Cardiology.
Physicians who wish to sub-specialize after their Residency training may enter a Fellowship training program. Sub-specialists fill service gaps and advance patient care, research and training at RUH. Similar to Residency training seats, a Fellow cannot fund their Fellowship seat: funding must be provided by a third party.
