Legal-medical advice

Hey everyone, I’m a 24 year old male who was injured during a school excursion back in November 2015. This injury resulted in a mfpl avulsion. Since then, I’ve been on various waiting lists and had a cartilage harvest surgery in 2018.

There is a lot more to this story in terms of correspondence from the hospital, but long story short I’ve been waiting for a mfpl reconstruction via the public health system for over 7.5 years.

This has impacted my life significantly as I was a very active person and since then I have gained a lot of weight and have not been able to be very active due to physical limitations from the injury sustained.

Is there any legal action I could take because the wait has been ridiculously long and I called the hospital the other day and the receptionist couldn’t fathom why it would take this long and said they did not see any dates for future appointments etc.
