## Urgency categories

Urgency figures cover all planned surgery at the hospital, not one procedure. They are never combined with the procedure figures. Your treating specialist assigns your urgency category — it is not something you choose. [What the categories mean, and how every hospital compares.](https://surgerywaits.au/urgency/)

All planned surgery at Princess Alexandra Hospital by urgency category, 2024–25.

| Urgency category | Median wait | Treated within the recommended time | Surgeries |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Urgent](https://surgerywaits.au/urgency/category-1/qld/) | 14 days | 82% | 7803 surgeries |
| [Semi-urgent](https://surgerywaits.au/urgency/category-2/qld/) | 61 days | 73% | 3892 surgeries |
| [Non-urgent](https://surgerywaits.au/urgency/category-3/qld/) | 177 days | 87% | 1395 surgeries |

## Queensland's own quarterly figures

Queensland Health publishes its own figures every three months. They count differently from the national figures above and are never combined with them. This quarter ends after the national reporting period, so it is the more recent of the two.

These figures count patients, not surgeries, and they are a snapshot of one quarter. The table above covers a whole financial year. Comparing a number from one table with a number from the other does not tell you anything.

Covers July to September 2025, published by Queensland Health on 28 October 2025. Reported as Princess Alexandra.

Planned surgery at Princess Alexandra Hospital by urgency category, July to September 2025.

| Group | Patients treated | Treated within the recommended time | Still waiting at the end of the quarter | Waiting longer than recommended |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| All planned surgery at this hospital | 3484 patients | 83.1% | 3302 patients | 369 patients |
| Category 1 — urgent (recommended within 30 days) | 2056 patients | 87.0% | 543 patients | 62 patients |
| Category 2 — semi-urgent (recommended within 90 days) | 1125 patients | 76.1% | 1450 patients | 258 patients |
| Category 3 — non-urgent (recommended within 365 days) | 303 patients | 82.5% | 1309 patients | 49 patients |

### By surgical specialty

Queensland reports by surgical specialty, not by procedure. A specialty covers many different operations, so a specialty figure is never a figure for any one of them.

Planned surgery at Princess Alexandra Hospital by surgical specialty, July to September 2025.

| Group | Patients treated | Treated within the recommended time | Still waiting at the end of the quarter | Waiting longer than recommended |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Cardio-thoracic surgery | 193 patients | 78.2% | 126 patients | 24 patients |
| ENT surgery | 137 patients | 92.0% | 94 patients | 5 patients |
| General surgery | 631 patients | 83.8% | 495 patients | 69 patients |
| Gynaecology | 2 patients | 100.0% | not published | not published |
| Neurosurgery | 160 patients | 83.1% | 123 patients | 16 patients |
| Ophthalmology | 402 patients | 84.3% | 547 patients | 36 patients |
| Orthopaedic surgery | 517 patients | 79.5% | 608 patients | 56 patients |
| Other surgery | 1 patient | 100.0% | 0 patients | 0 patients |
| Plastic & reconstructive surgery | 668 patients | 82.2% | 649 patients | 60 patients |
| Urology | 604 patients | 81.5% | 511 patients | 98 patients |
| Vascular surgery | 169 patients | 95.3% | 149 patients | 5 patients |
