How long will I need to wait for surgery?

For elective surgery this depends on whether you elect to be treated as either a private or public patient. Public patients where surgery may be done by a trainee surgeon under my supervision can be placed on my waitlist at Hawkesbury or Sydney Children’s hospitals where current wait time is 1 year minimum. For patients treated in a private hospital I can generally allocate a date for surgery within 6-8 weeks.
