Where this data comes from
Wait times shown here are sourced from publicly available information published by University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust. Our system automatically checks the hospital’s website at regular intervals and records the displayed waiting time. Where a trust does not publish waiting times directly, we may source data from third-party applications or services that provide equivalent publicly available information. Data was last checked at 2:21am on 28 Jul 2026.
