I am in oromocto although I am seeing the dr in Moncton. He was the only one five and a half years ago when I started this journey. I should have my surgery in the fall. Hopefully your wait won't be so long! Welcome to the forum. Although it's different drs I think the end results are similar. The healing and eating, even the before stuff, the frustrations of waiting. So even though we have different drs we have lots in common or can learn from others when unsure about things happening. Better to be informed and can ask questions of your dr.

I called Moncton today to see where I was in the list for surgery. Remember I signed my papers the last day in March. Anyway dr b's receptionist told me that I had to check with bookings at the hospital. She told me it wouldn't be before September at the earliest. I mentioned that dr b told you three to four months and she said he shouldn't have told you that. Just wanted to let you know, cuz I know how hard it was when the time frame comes that they give you and no word only to be told it will be a lot longer. I have been on this journey five and a half years and would prefer being told proper estimations.
i am in fredericton too, though i cannot add any to the wait list question as i had mine in bathurst as the dr in fredericton is fairly new. there used to only be the two drs in NB, then it went to three (two in bathurst and one in moncton) i would have no idea how his list, procedures and timeline go. nice to see that there are now 4 dr's here. hopefully this will help with everyone's wait list.
there are quite a few folks here that are a wealth of information at all stages of the game. veterans, new surgeries, waiters and those with questions as it is something they are thinking about.
any questions, just throw them out there. we are all here for each other.
welcome to the forum btw :)

i am on a prescription for stomach sicne surgery and helps the heartburn, i cant really help with that part. if i forget and take it later in the day, i am terrible uncomfortable and sore.
the noisy stomach, well all i can say is that i am two years out and i have and still do hear so many noises. it is especially funny when other folks in the room say, "was that you?"
lol i just laugh.....
