Are you waiting for a hip replacement?
We're having a look at wait times and are keen to talk to someone who's on the list to get a hip replaced.
It's an issue that's recently been highlighted in Southland and Otago, with some people waiting up to 18 months.
But what's it like in Waikato? If you're happy to share your experience, please email news@waikatotimes.co.nz with hip replacement in the subject line.

Poll: Are you worried about safety and crime in your neighbourhood?
An 84-year-old was left www.waikatotimes.co.nz...
|feeling insecure and vulnerable in one of Hamilton’s “bad neighbourhoods” after police cut down her wire fence chasing suspected robbers|.
More than four months after the incident the woman, who mostly lives by herself, says she is “disgusted with the police” and their lack of action - especially as her section backs onto a gully often used as a thoroughfare for people up to no good.
In a strange twist, police contacted her son about the repairs only hours after being approached by the Waikato Times for comment.
