They describe what happened to patients at this hospital over the reporting period. They do not tell you how long you would wait, and hospitals differ in size, services and the patients they treat, so these figures are not a like-for-like comparison. Elective surgery waiting times cover public hospital surgery only. They do not include waits to see a specialist in an outpatient clinic or private specialist waits.
