I swear I contact richmond every 6 weeks but I am wondering if anyone has contacted them recently and found out which referrals they are currently contacting? The last I asked in May I believe they were still contacting "early 2015"

I was referred May 2015 and contacted may 2017 almost to the day .

It's two years to get an answer then they said up to two years pre surgery qualification process. Then you're officially on the wait list.

They indicated 1-2 years after that for surgery.

Some posters here have had to wait about 4 years from referral to surgery.

Best of luck hang in there!!!

I was referred aprox 3 years before I got my consultation. It's been 6 months of seeing the dietitian and doing all of my tests (liver scan) (blood work) and I now get to see the surgeon in Feb! We will just have to see what he says now!

Everyone is different but it was 6 months from orientation to surgeon. And about 1 month booked from surgeon visit to surgery. I am currently 3 weeks out from surgery!
