Awaiting a surgery date

Story from nhs.uk

"Awaiting a surgery date"

About: Rotherham Hospital

I am coming up close to waiting 18 weeks from the date of my GP referral and have been signed off since November unable to work. I haven't had any news of a surgery date and had my pre op 5/12/18. This is putting me and my family under additional stress and worry as I'll be dropping down to half pay in May. I have asked to be considered for any cancellation but still no news. I have been in for surgery back in 2016 and the wait wasn't an issue. So frustrating when I had such an amazing service and experience last time.
