Martin Ferris

Question:

746. Deputy Martin Ferris asked the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the fact that there is a six-month wait for outpatient cardiology appointments at Cork University Hospital; and if this length of time is putting patients with heart problems at serious risk in the Health Service Executive south region. [4009/14]

Written answers

Minister for Health

In relation to the query raised by the Deputy, as this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to him directly.
