For patients

Admissions queries

We are unable to provide waiting times for treatment while you are on the waiting list for surgery. Your GP will provide support and will contact us directly.

Patients on our waiting list will be contacted by our admissions team when you have been allocated a date for surgery. In the meantime, if you experience a change in your symptoms or your condition deteriorates, please contact your GP or 111.

While you are waiting for your surgery, we recommend you familiarise yourself with our enhanced recovery programme (ERP).
