The typical wait shown is the median for the whole specialty: half of the people waited less than this, half waited longer, measured from referral to treatment. For mainly outpatient specialties, such as rheumatology, dermatology and neurology, it is the wait for patients treated in clinic; for the rest it is the wait for patients admitted for treatment. Urgent cases are treated sooner, so a routine wait can be longer.
