Flexible sigmoidoscopy (bowel camera test) waiting times, hospital by hospital

Updated June 2026 · (the NHS diagnostics waiting-list return)

The NHS does not publish scan waiting times for individual hospitals. Each figure below is the current flexible sigmoidoscopy queue at the NHS trust that runs that hospital — the list as it stands this month, not a prediction. The headline is the median wait; the % is the share who have already waited more than six weeks, against an NHS standard that fewer than 1% should. Ranked shortest first.

Hospitals with no reported figure

These trusts do not report their flexible sigmoidoscopy (bowel camera test) waiting times to NHS England, so we show no number. Each page explains why.

338 hospitals with a reported flexible sigmoidoscopy queue, plus 18 without. Each figure is the trust's current DM01 waiting list — a snapshot this month, not a prediction — and the NHS publishes one figure per trust, not per hospital.
