    Does anyone know about the difference between the private clinic vs. public clinic in the same hospital?

    If one doctor in tallaght hospital has both public and private clinic, are they in fact the same? I mean the services and quality offered, because they are from the same person, right?

    So am I right in understanding that, I just pay $$$ in order to avoid the long queue as a public patient?

    First time visiting hospital here in Ireland...so a bit confused...

    Thanks a mill in advance!

    Yes it should be the same quality of service, it's just likely that you'll be on a waiting list as a public patient
