Waiting times for Neurology referrals

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Aneurin Bevan University Health Board should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Aneurin Bevan University Health Board,

1) Could you please inform me of the up to date waiting times for G.P. Referral to appointment times within your Neurology departments, and the individual consultants waiting time lists.
(2) The statistics quoted by my GP and patient booking service advised of a 26 week waiting list regardless of routine or urgent referrals. Is there a difference in waiting time beteeen routine and urgent referrals and if so what is that difference?

Yours faithfully,

Reece Owen
