"waiting time"

About: Manor Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as a service user),

I was told my op would be in 18 weeks when I rang, they are not looking to do anything until end of April, that makes 25 weeks + good old NHS + all you can do is wait + but who cares.

I am a carer for my wife who uses a wheelchair, I need to know when.
