Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 17 December 2014
173. Deputy Finian McGrath asked the Minister for Health the position regarding a hospital appointment and operation in respect of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 9; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [48643/14]
View answerThe scheduling of appointments for patients is a matter for the hospital to which the patient has been referred. Should a patient's general practitioner consider that the patient's condition warrants an earlier appointment, he or she would be in the best position to take the matter up with the consultant and hospital involved. In relation to the specific case raised, as this is a service matter it has been referred to the HSE for direct reply.
