Tonscillectomy & adenoidectomy

    Hi guys :)
    Have had a lot of problems with tonsils and my doc said I need to have my tonsils and adenoids removed and has referred me to see an ENT. I know there are previous threads on this subject but I just have a few questions if anyone who was in the same boat as I am could help me I'd really appreciate it.

    FYI-I dont have a medical card or health insurance.

    I got a letter saying my appointment with the ENT will be in the next year, which I was expecting anyway but don't think I can wait that long, so does anyone know can I pay to go private to see the ENT so it'll be less waiting time, then go back to the public waiting list for the surgery?

    Also do you think if I go on a waiting list somewhere outside of Dublin it might be quicker? I don't mind travelling.

    Lastly, I can't seem to find a cost to go private for tonscillectomy AND adenoidectomy removal together, so has anyone had these procedures done privately and if so, how much did it set you back?
    Thank you in advance!

    Sorry OP

    While they are all valid questions, they are all questions you should ask your GPS and not the posters here.
