Dr Mai Ling Perman

Picture
In the early years of the Fiji training programs, Dr Mai Ling Perman had a strong interest in endoscopy and with the ANZGITA team's support and that of FNU Assoc Prof Jioji Malnai she quickly developed competencies and continued to develop her skills over the following years. In 2013 Mai Ling came to Australia for intensive training. Subsequently, she undertook more observational training in Japan, and attended a WGO train-the-trainer course in London in 2015. Mai Ling is now a teacher at the FNU Medical School and does frequent outreach training across the Pacific. This has taken her to Vanuatu, Palau, Kiribati, Tonga, Marshall Islands and probably other visits we are not aware of. Mai Ling is on the left in the photo celebrating her birthday while in Marshall Islands supporting colleagues.
​
Amongst her achievements in addition to the many patients she has treated in Suva, is the formation of a competency assessment form for endoscopy trainees that we also use in other pacific programs, and over-seeing the ongoing gastroenterology curriculum and program in Suva. According to Chris Hair, who leads all our activities in the Pacific, "Mai Ling has probably done more for pacific endoscopy than anyone, and arguably had the most influence through her training, teaching and clinical work."​
