I had the same surgery done in the good old US of A and I only had to wait 3 months to schedule surgery in the SF Bay area. How bout that for service;) Knocking the NHS is getting really tiresome. The US with it's private insurance is already making people wait and also not providing optimal outcomes while still being overly expensive. The fact is either system can work - but we as a society have not prioritized the necessary training in volume to make these highly technical jobs available at scale.
