They referred me to hospital specials appointment in Aug.

That's the problem with getting referral. The appointment to see a specialist is likely to be a couple of months later. After you see the specialist, he may require some more tests that take another one month to schedule. After the results are out, you'll have to see him and again appointment is quite some time later.

That's what happened to me. I saw a specialist in SGH in Oct last year, and after all the tests, he scheduled me to see even more specialists and the appointments are in April this year. I totally give up and didn't even bother to turn up for the appointment.
