Questions people ask
How long is the NHS waiting list for dermatology?
It depends on the hospital. In August 2026, at a typical hospital half of the people treated for dermatology had waited under 5 weeks. The shortest treated wait in England was at Tameside General, where half were treated within 1 weeks. The table above covers every provider with figures.
Is the dermatology waiting list getting shorter?
Every hospital page for dermatology on this site has a trend chart covering up to 24 months of NHS England figures, so you can see whether the wait at that hospital is rising or falling. National figures are updated about two months after each month ends.
What does dermatology cover?
Skin: moles, eczema, psoriasis. NHS England collects waiting times by specialty, not by operation, so a knee replacement and a fracture clinic appointment sit in the same figure.
