I was in an NHS hospital last week for an infected bite on my arm.
Time waiting for X-ray - maybe 30 seconds, mostly taken by the time for me to get to the X-ray room.
Doctor in A&E said I needed an X-ray, I walk next door to X-ray department where they X-ray me immediately and I walk back to the A&E department where the doctor has already looked at the X-rays by the time I got back there (i.e. within a couple of minutes of them being taken).
