Student Feedback

We had so many different opportunities where we could witness the real health professionals changing the lives of real patients for the better.

I was enthralled by the whole program… FHP showed me the evidence-based philosophies, skill of practice and compassionate qualities that are required for a career in healthcare which appealed to my personal values.
