Surgical Waiting List Hotlines
GP 'Hotline' for elective surgery waiting lists at St Vincent's.
“How long is my patient likely to wait for their surgical procedure?”
“Are they actually still on a waiting list?”
These are common issues for General Practice. GPs and Practice Nurses can now directly ring a Surgical Waiting List Officer at St Vincent's to check on this important information for their patients.
Where the condition of your patient worsens while they are waiting you can now directly contact our Surgical Liaison Nurses to notify them and seek to have their case brought forward.
