Edward & Sandra Clark Nuclear Medicine Suite Named at Queen Elizabeth Hospital

FEBRUARY 12, 2026

Charlottetown, PEI — The Queen Elizabeth Hospital Foundation yesterday announced the naming of the Edward & Sandra Clark Nuclear Medicine Suite, recognizing a generous gift of over $1 million that fully funded the province’s newest state-of-the-art SPECT-CT system.

Edward and Sandra Clark, long-time Island business leaders and community supporters, have a deep history with the QEH. Ed served on the QEH Foundation Board from 2008 to 2014 and played an active role in the Foundation’s Care Today for Tomorrow capital campaign, during which the Clarks made a leadership gift. Their latest investment continues a legacy of strengthening healthcare for Islanders.

“The Clarks’ generosity strengthens the Foundation’s ability to respond to the hospital’s highest priorities.” says John Scales, Chair of the QEH Foundation. “Their continuing commitment ensures we can continue delivering essential equipment that supports world-class care right here on PEI.”

The new system replaces a 14-year-old scanner that has reached the end of its service life. The upgraded technology provides sharper images, greater reliability, and more efficient exams, supporting more than 1,700 Islanders each year. With quicker scan times it is anticipated that more patients can be served per year.

“This new SPECT-CT is essential for diagnosing and guiding treatment for serious health conditions, and its arrival ensures Islanders can continue to receive this quality care close to home,” said Julie Sinclair, Provincial Director of Diagnostic Imaging. “Patients and our healthcare team will benefit greatly from this extraordinary investment.”

The QEH Foundation and nuclear medicine team expressed its deep appreciation to the Clarks for their continued commitment to strengthening healthcare in Prince Edward Island. Their generosity ensures QEH healthcare teams have advanced diagnostic imaging today and for years to come.
