Sir Keir Starmer has promised an extra 40,000 NHS appointments per week in a bid to reduce waiting lists.
The Labour party leader pledged to make healthcare a priority if his party gets into power in July.
"That will make a massive difference to the lives of people and not just to their physical health," he added.
