Average GP waiting times breach two weeks for first time ever
The average wait for a routine GP appointment is now more than two weeks, for the first time ever, according to our sister publication Pulse’s annual survey of waiting times.
A midpoint analysis of data from the survey of 901 GPs across the UK found that the average waiting time is now 15 days– the first time it has ever exceeded a fortnight.
More than 22% of GPs said that the wait for a routine appointment was more than three weeks, with 6% saying that it was longer than four weeks. Hide related content:
