A neurologist needs to be appointed to Letterkenny University Hospital on a permanent basis as soon as possible.
That’s according to the Neurological Alliance of Ireland, who have launched a support campaign targeting elected representatives on the matter today.
Currently, the neurological service in LUH visits from Sligo every fortnight for two and a half days a week.
It’s also estimated that the waiting time for a first-time appointment to see the neurologist is around 18 months.
Speaking to Ocean FM News, Mags Rogers, Executive Director of the NAI, says things are at crisis point.
