I was just wondering if anyone out there has had their surgery at St Richards? ... ... if anyone could let me know how long they waited for treatment (just as a rough guide )
July 2009 - funding approved
Aug 2009 - consultation
Oct 2009 - appointment with psycologist
jan 2010 - suregry date recieved
feb 2010 - pre-op appointment
1st march - start pre-op diet
13th march - surgery day
that sums up my timeline
fantastic team there...best of luck xxx
ive just been sent a referal for st richards and ive sent back -and they have told me the term frame is 18 weeeks if you go on the website st richards website you can find the pathway and questionaire which is normally quite long xx
Hello , Thank you all for your responces , The questionaire you refer to ... is that the one with the 5 day food diary ? or is there another one ? i have already sent a questionaire off ... it gave me writers cramp ! hee hee xx
I think the general wait any NHS funded hospital initially gives you is, "within 12 months".
I'm North Tyneside and I've been told the waiting list depends on anyone with a higher BMI getting bumped further up the list. Quite demoralising really.
