More than 700 patients waited too long for ultrasound tests at Kingston Hospital because of staff shortages, GPs have been told.
Health services across the borough must ensure 99 percent of patients needing a diagnostic test are seen within six weeks. Kingston’s clinical commissioning group reported this month the figure stood at just 82.8 percent in December.
The backlog of 728 patients has been cut to 468 after extra services were put on at Surbiton Health Centre and elsewhere. The 99 percent target is expected to be met by the end of March.
