Pinderfields bsge centre waiting times

[morvena]

Hi all,

Anyone any experience of waiting times at Pinderfields? Had my laporoscopy in May but as they found severe endometriosis all over the place so no removal of endo, fibroids or hysterectomy. Was referred to Pinderfields for surgery but as yet have not been called for an appointment.

How long have people waited for appointment and after that how long did you wait for surgery?

Really worried its been 2 years to get to this point in May for surgery and now i seem to be starting again with bsge centre all the while the endo will be getting worse.

Originally had it excised in 2003 and had marina for 13 years and all was good, but its back again! Lets hope its not another 2 years before my next surgery. Had 2 years of various hormone treatments whihch were awful and none worked so now nothing, just waiting for surgery.

Hope somebody has positives re Pinderfields.

Hi. I have never been treated by them but looked on the hospital trusts website and it says up to 26 weeks from time of gp referral to treatment in 9/10 patients. It may be worth while giving them a ring to double check that you are at least on the list to be seen.

Thanks, i have rung and they said within 10 weeks if its stage 4 and i am on list. Of course do not know how long after my initial apointment for surgery they can't tell me that. I will ring again at end of this month if nothing comes through.

Hey I was treated there and honestly could not be happier with it all. I was referred and given an appt to see a consultant within 6 wks- it did take me over a year to get to treatment and have a lap which was done March this yr but all the appts and care etc were straight forward. The waiting time for lap is approx 6 months x
