Trust Wait Times

The document below shows the current waiting times in weeks for outpatient appointments by specialty at both Southport & Formby District General Hospital and Ormskirk & District General Hospital.

By the end of this year, the maximum permitted waiting time for a patient from referral by their GP to the start of treatment will be 18 weeks. This includes outpatient appointments, any diagnostic appointments and, if necessary, inpatient or day case waiting times.

We are currently working towards this and in the vast majority of specialties we have already achieved this goal. For more information on 18 Weeks, which is also known sometimes as ‘End waiting, change lives’, click here.

The list will be updated monthly.
