How long is the wait for an echocardiogram (heart scan) at Northampton General Hospital?

The NHS does not publish echocardiogram waiting times for individual hospitals. This figure is for Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust, which runs Northampton General Hospital, and it is the current echocardiogram queue that applies to you here — the list as it stands this month, not a prediction.

More than half the people waiting for an echocardiogram (heart scan) at Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust have already been waiting longer than 13 weeks, so no median can be given. 80% of the queue has waited more than six weeks, against an NHS standard that fewer than 1% should.
