Optimise your health and wellbeing 

Waiting for your operation can be frustrating, particularly when waits can be longer than they should be as health services strive to catch up after the pandemic. We apologise for delays that some patients may be experiencing, but please be assured that we are working hard to reduce waiting times. 

The time leading up to surgery offers an important opportunity for patients to take steps to optimise their health and wellbeing, so when they do have their operation, the outcomes are improved and they also recover more quickly.
