NHS waiting times — Leeds catchment
Data through August 2026. NHS acute and specialist hospitals within 30 miles of central Leeds with 50 or more people on the Gastroenterology Service list, ranked shortest wait first. NHS source.
If you're in Leeds and waiting for endoscopy / gastroscopy, the NHS hospital with the shortest current wait is not necessarily the one your GP would default to.
If your GP suspects cancer, this is different. This kind of test or treatment is also used to investigate cancer. If you have been referred on the urgent suspected-cancer pathway (an urgent referral for suspected cancer), that is separate from the routine waiting list below — you should be seen quickly wherever you are referred, and it is not something to shop around on. If you have symptoms that worry you, speak to your GP.
