WAITING TIMES FOR WISDOM TEETH OPERATIONS

Tabled by Keith Vaz (Labour) 21 signatures

The motion

That this House calls upon the University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust to reconsider its decision to make Mr Hiren Savjani wait two years for an operation to remove two painful wisdom teeth; regrets that the Leicester Royal Infirmary has suffered a reduction in its maxillofacial medical staff capacity; notes the significant increase in funding the Government has provided to shorten waiting lists; and considers that two years is an unreasonable and unjustified time to have to wait for the removal of wisdom teeth.
