How long is the wait for a gallbladder removal at Stamford & Rutland Hospital?
The NHS does not publish waiting times for individual hospitals. This figure is for North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust, which runs Stamford & Rutland Hospital, and it is the wait that applies to you here.
Updated June 2026 · (Referral to Treatment — the NHS wait-time framework)
This is how long half of patients wait for the whole General Surgery specialty at this trust, from GP referral to the start of treatment — the NHS does not publish a wait for gallbladder removal on its own.
Before treatment: the scan wait too
An ultrasound scan is a separate NHS queue from the treatment wait above, and it comes first. At North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust the typical ultrasound wait is 5 weeks, with 46% waiting over six weeks (June 2026).
