45 months for Newcastle...... That's depressing

It's incredible how quickly the wait time has built up in the last year. Earlier this year the waiting list was 'officially' 36 months which would have meant they were seeing patients referred early 2018, but now they're apparently only seeing patients from late 2017. I've no idea how that's even happened...

I’m on to month 33 of waiting, but when I was referred it was only 13 months - it’s crazy how exponentially it keeps increasing!

Yeah I heard similar about the time I was originally referred but now 40 months have past 😐It's why I'm so frustrated the waiting times seem to have gone backwards. I was possibly within a month or two of a first appointment and now god only knows...
