NEW TO ALBERTA AND LOOKING FOR CLINIC CONTACT INFO
Hi There!
My name is Michelle and I recently moved to Alberta (well not recent, actually 6 months ago lol). I had my RNY surgery last year in Ontario. I called the Ontario Bariatric Clinic for some info on how to connect with a Bariatric Clinic in Alberta, and to my not-so-surprise they had no idea. Sooo.. I'm hoping that someone on this forum can direct me in the right direction as to how I can get in contact with a clinic in Alberta.
Thank you,
Michelle
Hi Michelle,
I'm currently on the waitlist for the Red Deer clinic, and as far as I know Alberta Health requires a referral for all their bariatric clinics. Below are the phone numbers for each of the clinics (from the on the AH website), if you give them a call they should be able to help you with how to get your Ontario clinic files transferred over :)
Edmonton - 780-735-5620
Red Deer - 403-356-4200
Calgary - 403-955-8118
Good Luck!

Hi Michelle! Here is the info for the clinic in Edmonton:

thanks for all the help you guys! I called yesterday and they gave me the info I was looking for. It works a bit different in Alberta so I'll have to get that all figured out but am on the right path. :)
thanks again.
