In relation to the particular query raised, the details provided indicate that the patient has been referred to a private hospital for an appointment.
Private health care providers are independent organisations and the range of services available, and the criteria for access to those services does not fall under the remit of the Department of Health. Issues relating to waiting times for appointments would be best directed to the administration staff associated with the consultant in the private hospital.
