hi all just wondering about the difference in countries of waiting times to get tkr ,i live in south of ireland and here if you dont have private health insurance the waiting time to get tkr is over 5yrs which is crazy to say the least so in my case my husband needed hip replacement and i needed two knees ,we had to make sure we had private insurance its cost us a fortune this year it was over 3,000 euro for insurance and we had to have it and god knows how much it will cost next year as we have to keep paying it because my husband needs to get his knee done in the next 12 months .is the waiting times better in your country ?

Annoying part is I have private health care but it doesn't cover my knee as it was a pre-existing condition. I live in Cheshire but had my surgery at a specialist unit in Liverpool.
