Through February and March, we have seen an unprecedented rise in requests to hire our n-UVB Canopies for Psoriasis, Vitiligo & Eczema. When I say unprecedented, I mean it! We have a fleet of over 50 units, we’ve been hiring since ’96 and even through Covid, when we saw demand rocket, our wait lists were no more than 2 weeks with 10 customers waiting.
We know that waiting list times for NHS treatment have gone up since the start of the year.
Last year, referral times were reported to us as, at best 6 weeks and 6 months between GP and Derm appointments and then between 6 months and up to two years for actual Phototherapy treatment.
We would like to find out what your experience has been recently and would appreciate any feedback on referral times in your local Trust. We’d like to know how Phototherapy referrals are working in your part of the country.
