Why?

I imagine you know but FTP/SSH != sftp

Do you think ssh is too slow and unreliable?

Don't you have a duty to secure that medical data for many reasons,
obviously not jeopardising lives being paramount via reliability first
and speed, does nfs offer that.

Seems all you need is interfaces for sftp?

If your trusting a windows gui!!! with this data then why are
others using the commandline put and get. Are your windows users using
dir and copy.

I do understand that you may be reluctant to change to something tried
and tested but then your moving to nfsv4.
