Henry Ford Hospital for RNY
Hello everyone,
I'm wondering if there's anyone on here who's been to Henry Ford Hospital and had the RNY.
I've got a stack of papers that I downloaded from Wanda's email and I'm not sure what needs to be done in Ontario.
All I've had done so far is the blood tests and I've got to go for a chest x-ray.
I believe there's an ECG or EKG that can't be done until a month before scheduled surgery.
The next meeting is May 4th and I want to call them soon to make sure I get a spot.
Can anyone help?
Thanks so much,
Daisy

Hi Daisy
I had my RNY at Henry Ford In Wyandotte with Dr, Hendrick. My family doctor did all the paperwork for me and i just did all the tests.
Which meeting are you going to on May 4th? If it is just the information session you can call and book a spot. That is what i did anyways.
I hope this helps
And way to go on you steps to a healthier you.

Hi Dawn,
The initial meeting is the information session, but apparently you stay overnight and meet with the surgeon the next day.
I just don't want to screw this up. Not only am I absolutely petrified of surgery (previous bad experiences), but I'm terrible with directions (going to the clinic) and I applied to OHIP last September. The wait is just killing me!

You applied last Sept. and haven't heard anything yet???? Something is wrong with that. Did your family doc send in your application?
Edited to say...I see you have been approved. Congratulations! I had Dr. Carlin and loved him and HFH (even if some on this board seem to hold them in low regard) and had no complications and a smooth recovery and steady weight loss. Good luck on your journey!

Hi I was just approved from ohip for the RYN surgery. I was wondering if you could give me nurse Wanda's email address from Henry Ford Hospital Detroit. I was told to contact her about the bariatric class. I called her twice and she still hasn't got back to me yet. It's been a week since I was told to call her. I thought I should of heard by now.
