Nah m8, a two week wait referral means you get an ENT cancer exclusion referral in 2 weeks. An 'urgent' ENT referral is within the year if you're lucky, unfortunately that's about as 'urgent' as ENT gets.(, Mon 23 Sep 2024, 22:01, archived)
Ah well yeah.There is a suspicious lump in my ear canal they want to have a look at. Again.

To be fair, an 'urgent' cardiology referral has been around a year wait for about as long as I've been a GP and a 2 week wait dermatology appointment is getting on for a month.And yet instead of any sort of acknowledgement that I'm still able to provide patients with an appointment within 4 weeks for even non urgent problems despite the fact that our staff are leaving in droves due to the unmanageable workload and we can't afford to replace them as we struggle to balance the relentless rising costs against static government funding and ever increasing need arising from an aging population and the failure of hospitals to provide any sort of timely care even as the NHS proportional spending on secondary vs primary care continues to increase, GPs are still getting all the flack for the health service being shit because hospitals are special or something.

Hey now I will fucking revolt if any fucker tries to take my NHS.GP surgeries seemed to work a lot better before 2010, just to pick an election year almost completely at random... Also patient satisfaction was at an all time high around that time.
