How long is the wait for a gastroscopy (stomach camera test) at Orsett Hospital?
The NHS does not publish gastroscopy waiting times for individual hospitals. This figure is for Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, which runs Orsett Hospital, and it is the current gastroscopy queue that applies to you here — the list as it stands this month, not a prediction.
More than half the people waiting for a gastroscopy (stomach camera test) at Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust have already been waiting longer than 13 weeks, so no median can be given. 66% of the queue has waited more than six weeks, against an NHS standard that fewer than 1% should.
