My wife must wait over a year for surgery '“ what are politicians doing?
I would like to highlight the recent issues that my wife and I experienced due to the lack of funding of the NHS in Ireland.
My wife has an ongoing medical problem that needs surgery, and has recently visited the City Hospital in Belfast.
While there, she had an appointment with a senior surgeon, who advised her that she would have to wait for at least a year for surgery.

It is now very obvious to me that the money is there in Stormont, but there is no MLA to sign it out.
