Hi
I was told that my consultant surgeon won't be able to do a knee replacement until he received an aporoval form from ccg ( clinical comissioning group). I saw the consultant last October, he put me on his waiting Iist for bilateral knee replacement, right knee first. Just wondering if anyone experience the wait for how long

I understand that you are waiting for a knee replacement and wondering what the wait time is. I think the answer partly depends on where you live. You could try contacting our Helpline who might have some information or have a look through this community, you can search the posts by using the magnifying glass symbol at the top of the page.
