HI MH,
Members have reported periods in excess of 6 to 8 weeks after a face to face medical assessment without receiving a decision.
The assessment process would seem to be gridlocked at the moment, they are supposed to be dealing with around 12,000 IB to ESA migrations a week at present, and that is without any new ESA claims.
So I am afraid there is no definitive answer to your question.
