Dr Beausoleil
His office is still saying the wait is 5 years (sorry to break the bad news). However, there is a new surgeon in Bathurst, who is in the midst of setting up a clinic. His name is Dr Marc Savoie. His contact info is in a recent post here somewhere. I would have your doctor to send the referral to Dr S too, but don't inform Dr B's office or they will take you off his list.
I don't think the wait is 5 years anymore because there are now 3 new surgeon in NS and NB (Dr B used to handle all of NS).

I waited for 3 years 6 months for my first appt , I still have three more appts to go then I get a surgery date.They are still working on referrals from 2004 2005 when medicare changed the need to go to a specialist they had to go back and redo all their referrals. But I believe the wait for bathrust maybe shorter but the doc there is not seeing anyone until the fall.
NS is not seeing anyone at this time from NB today I had the news and was on the list for a year waiting to hear and it was very disappointing after the year to hear as I would have perferred to hear this news earlier .They have a list of 2000 ppl from NS and PEI and that is who they are seeing at this time .
