The NHS waiting lists in Wales are so massive that they have started to use private doctors and nurses inside NHS hospitals in the evenings and weekends to try to clear the backlog.

Treatment? No. Just invite you by phone to attend a consultation (with a clerk).

I just took our daughter for her "consultation", today, a Sunday.

Confirm name, address and DOB. Are you still having the problem? Yes, so we can only offer you an endoscopy in about 2 years. Do you wish to go ahead? We'll add you to the list, goodbye.

All that could have been done with a short phonecall.
