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
Fredericton is Dr Boisvert
Moncton - Dr Beausoleil & Dr Theriault
Bathurst - I am not sure lol
But those are the 3 clinics
You need to friend request me as we have it set as secret :) Then i can add you - alicia mcknight
I do have an appointment to see Dr B next Thursday but wondering who has been through this. Last Monday, I thought I "pulled" a muscle in my abs but it seems to be ongoing. I called the nurse to see if I should go to my local hospital but she said to come see Dr B. Have others been through this? Could it be a slip / flipped port after all these guys? It's been about 9 years I think. I haven't had a fill in well over a year and very little weight loss so I don't know what might have spurred this.
On another note, I can't seem to lose - stuck around 195 and I'm only 5'2. Don't want another surgery, fills are a cycle (too much, take some out, too little, put some in). I'm considering getting it unfilled to try a bigger variety of foods but also worried I will gain back more weight.
Hey I had the surgery two and a half years ago. At first I was emotional you can't eat like a normal person anymore and you'll never be able to. I still can only eat around a cup of food at a time. My biggest struggle after surgery was I lost 160lbs in one year. I went from 310lbs to 150lbs. So I had some loose skin even though I exercised a lot. If you want it removed you have to pay for it out of pocket the province doesn't cover it and its pricey. Sure I wasn't comfortable in my skin when I was bigger and I'm not now that I'm smaller. It's very emotional. I just look at it now that I'm healthy now.
thank you for your reply. I really don't want to have to wait the 5-6 years. It's too bad people have to go through this to get a handle on their health.
Anyone have experience self paying in Ontario? or Quebec? I am just not sure I can swing it.

No clue about out of province referral but I would suggest you get your refferal sent everywhere. There is a clinic in Bathurst also and I believe in fredericton.
