Urgency categories
Urgency figures cover all planned surgery at the hospital, not one procedure. They are never combined with the procedure figures. Your treating specialist assigns your urgency category — it is not something you choose.
| Urgency category | Median wait | Treated within the recommended time | Surgeries |
|---|---|---|---|
| Urgent | 14 days | 85% | 119 surgeries |
| Semi-urgent | 15 days | 89% | 398 surgeries |
| Non-urgent | 55 days | 87% | 1007 surgeries |
