    I believe the NHS has an 18 week deadline from referral to operation.

      You should be able to find the waiting time for the hospitals in your area. They are online but ai can’t remember the URL. Will be somewhere on the NHS website. You can ask your GP to arrange for you to go to a particular hospital using the Choose and Book option.
