Public waiting list all depends on your area. Dd waited 18 months (tonsils, adenoids, grommits). And ended up being done at a second hospital under our health service area. Wasn't supposed to be on both wait lists, but they let it go because she'd been waiting so long.

Another friend, in a different area is having her dd's grommits done in the next few weeks after only waiting about 6 months.

My sister is taking her dd to a sleep school this month in Sydney (from coffs harbour, so maybe not available elsewhere?). I think they've been waiting since she was a few months old to get in. She turns 1 tomorrow.
