The board of the Found Doux Foundation has authorized a trial position for Dr. Dieuseul Istache to become a resident physician at the Fond Doux Clinic. It would be for a period of 4 months as we discover whether there are sufficient patients to warrant the clinic being open for three or four days per week with a physician on staff. As of the date of publication , he has not yet signed the contract, but is expected to accept the position.

Dr. Istache grew up in Fond Doux and received his university and medical training on a Fond Doux Foundation scholarship. Since graduating from Royal Universitè d’Haiti in 2023, he has been waiting for assignment from the Department of Health for his required assignment for social work, the last step in becoming a certified MD in Haiti. However, the government of Haiti has not been fully functional and he is in an extended waiting period. He is able to take on a temporary position.
