Surgeries that we enjoy over here with minimal waits are considered elective over there in the UK. Surgery for urinary incontinence, for example, is considered elective and requires being listed on long wait lists. I guess Kimberly-Clark does some good business over there selling their depends diapers. NHS services are already severely limited in the form of wait lists that can last months and even years.
