Update: 12:24PM OVER a hundred patients have lined up at the Rakiraki Hospital to take advantage of free services provided by a visiting medical team from Taiwan’s Cathay General Hospital.

A senior hospital staff confirmed that even though there was a list of booked cases, many still wanted to be screened and had travelled from Nasau, Nukuloa, Togovere, Drauniivi and as far as Tavua.

The Taiwanese medical mission is headed by hospital deputy superintendent Dr Hung Kun-Long, and includes doctors whose specialties include orthopaedics, endocrinology and dentistry.
