It will be 2 years in June I had my operation done.  He is awesome (very dry) but I had no complications at all and have done very well since. As he will tell you "Its a tool" you have to be wise and use it right for success.   Good Luck.

I know this is an old thread but I figured an update could be helpful for others. 

I have been referred to Dr. Boisvert just a few weeks ago. I called his office today to confirm they recieved my referral and to ask about wait times. The receptionist said that they were currently at a 2-4 year wait, which isn't fantastic but a hell of a lot better than the 5-7 years (or more) I was expecting!

 

Fingers crossed that I get the call sooner like it sounds some people have.

Hi. It will possi ly be quicker i would suggest ypu. Do your 3 appointments with catherine mccain dietition its not covered . it will speed up the process. Also what ppl say is true hes very strict and he wants to ensure your success. Start journaling as its required and start exercising. He wants at least 1 hr per day

Hi just wondering if you have received a call from Dr Boiverts yet? I go my referral sent in May 3, 2016. Still no news for me. I have a friend who had referral sent in March 1, 2016 and she's got her first communication from the office May 26 2017 and has went thru the dietician and met with him on sept 19 and will be having surgery probably in Dec...I'm really hoping to get a call soon. I did call the office to update my phone number and she also told me 2-4 years.
