Which North East hospital?

I'm being referred to an endocrinologist.

I can choose a clinic.

Does anyone have experience in these and knows in which one I'll be most likely to meet a decent endo?

-Shotley Bridge

-Chester-le-Stree

-Durham

-Bishop Auckland

- Darlington

Or should I go with the one with the shortest waiting time?

Thanks!
