Dear Capital and Coast District Health Board,
I would like to request the longest, shortest, median and average wait times for outpatient- patients ( referred by GPs to see a specialist (First appointment) at Wellington hospital over the last 6 months, and 1 year) . Please provide the wait times data split by each specialty eg.your response should tell the wait times specifically for each specialty like number of days to see a Cardiologist or urologist or gynecologist etc.
Please let me know if anything requires clarification.
