My request is regarding the Gender Affirming (Genital) Surgery Service. Specifically how long on average it takes them to process referrals to the waitlist for a first specialist assessment. From the time of receiving a referral from a specialist or GP, to said referral being either accepted or denied. As well as what percentage of referals are eventually denied.
