Viewing waiting lists - NHS App help

You can use the NHS App to see if you’re on a waiting list and the likely time you’ll wait for treatment.

Information:

We've updated the NHS App to make it easier to use. Find out more about what's new in the NHS App.

To view your waiting lists:

  1. Go to the NHS App homepage or select Your health from the menu at the bottom of the screen.
  2. Select Upcoming and past appointments.
  3. Select Waiting lists.

For information on how waiting times work view our guide to wait times.

If you cannot see your waiting list

It can take 2 weeks for your waiting list to show in the NHS App.

Waiting lists may not show if your healthcare provider has not provided their waiting list information.

Contact your GP, or the service you’ve been referred to, if you have any questions about your waiting list.

If you cannot see your waiting time on your waiting list

Not all waiting times are made available in the app, but you're still on a waiting list.
