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

This figure is for Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, which runs Victoria Hospital, and it is the current echocardiogram queue that applies to you here — the list as it stands this month, not a prediction.

Half of the people waiting for an echocardiogram (heart scan) at Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust have waited longer than 5 weeks. 43% have been waiting more than six weeks, against an NHS standard that fewer than 1% should.
