does any one knows if breast reduction is covered by Alberta Health service?

I'm moving from Quebec to Alberta

I know that Quebec covers this surgery, but have no idea about Alberta,

does any one knows if breast reduction is covered by Alberta Health service?

if yes, how should I apply for it and how long should I wait?

if no, how much it is approximately , and does any one know about any doctor doing that in Edmonton?

Thanks!

A basic reduction is covered by AHS, if a lift is required you will have to pay for that yourself unless your plastic surgeon is willing to do it at no extra cost.

There are plenty of doctors in the Edmonton area that do breast reduction, if you use google you will find several clinic with certified doctors. I have not had any first hand experience with any of them and as far as I know from friend that had it done you need to have a referral from your family doctor stating why a reduction is medically needed for AHS to cover it and of course your plastic surgeon needs to deem it fit as well. 

Good Luck.
