How this page is built
One row per provider per specialty, taken from the NHS England referral to treatment publication for May 2026 and never recomputed. A median here is NHS England's own derived column for the specialty as a whole. Providers appear only where the publication names them, and a provider with no published median is shown as not published rather than estimated. Where we say a provider is ranked, the ranking is an ordering of published medians within one provider population, using our published pathway floor, and it says nothing about how long any one person will wait or about the quality of care.
