Surgery Waits

Yorke and Northern surgery waiting times

The public hospitals reporting planned-surgery waiting times under Yorke and Northern in South Australia.

Reference period 2024–25 (1 July 2024 to 30 June 2025) · released

8 public hospitals report planned-surgery waiting times under Yorke and Northern. Each hospital's page carries every surgery it reports, ranked against the nearest alternatives — including hospitals outside this network, because a waiting list does not care who runs the hospital.

The source groups public hospitals into Local Hospital Networks — called local health districts in New South Wales, hospital and health services in Queensland, health services in Victoria and Western Australia, and networks elsewhere. The grouping is the source's own mapping, not this site's. The source publishes this network as "Yorke and Northern".
