Urology in Queensland
Urology in Queensland: planned surgery waiting times at public hospitals, with the national figures beside them. Public hospitals in Queensland that published a median wait in 2024–25: 19.
A specialty covers many operations. Its figures describe all the patients treated under the specialty, and say nothing about one operation.

Hospitals in Queensland
The shortest median wait comes first. A hospital with no published median wait follows, in name order, and has no rank.
A rank compares a hospital with every public hospital in Australia that published the same figure for the same period. The page shows a rank only on a current published figure. It never ranks a withheld or unreported figure. It also never ranks a figure from an earlier period.

How waits have changed
Each chart shows one figure for each year the source published it. A year with no published figure is a gap in the line, and the table under the chart gives the reason.
The charts show Australia and Queensland.

Private hospitals are excluded. This page covers public hospitals only, so it shows no private hospital.

Surgery Waits is not medical advice. Your general practitioner and your treating specialist can help you decide what is right for you.
