The new Aspen Medical Hospital in Lautoka has saved another life after Anant Kumar underwent a safe bypass surgery over the weekend.

Kumar thanked the Government for assisting Fijians that are suffering from heart disease.

Attorney-General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum tweeted that Aspen Medical now offers free open heart surgeries to Fijians of all ages, every week.

He says people's health can't always wait on specialist teams from overseas.

At the new Aspen Medical Hospital in Lautoka, we now offer free open heart surgeries to Fijians of all ages, every day of the week - because our people's health can't always wait on specialist teams from overseas.

Mr Anant Kumar is one of many lives we can now save. pic.twitter.com/4YgeYidfI7
