I would love to know how you were able to get in so quickly! I spoke with his receptionist today and she told me the list is 4-7 years long right now. It seems so weird that it could jump so much in such a short period of time!
I believe I had read on another forum that the wait with Boisvert was significantly less than for the others, but I'm guessing things have changed since then. The lady today said 4-7 years, and I find it odd that it went from a year and a half to 4-7 years so quickly. Only time will tell I suppose. ?
I did my surgery with Dr Boisvert in Nov 2014. I only waited for 1 yrs and half. That time there was no list and he was chosing. But now i dont know if he change the waiting list.
The wait times are very discouraging. At least I have comfort in knowing that it is going to happen at some point. I called Dr Boisverts office today, and the lady said there is a 4-7 year wait there. So looks like it will be 5 years no matter what.
Thanks for the info!
Dr Beausoleil is about 8 years
Dr Savoie and Semerjian is about 4 years
Dr boisvert no idea....I asked to be on all listings so I was going to get the first available.
once I have surgery which is booked for Nov 18 I'll call and remove my name off all the other listings.
I've always been more of a creeper than a poster, but enjoy reading all the posts.
I waited 5 years for Dr Beausoleil, but it was totally worth it. Nice guy, great surgeon and awesome follow up care with the bariatric team. Out of province is expensive. I know someone *****cently had the slimband done in Toronto, and I believe it was $15,000.
Best of luck!
Hello All!
I've been on the waitlist with Dr Beausoleil (Moncton) for about a year now. I called the other day and was told they are doing consults from referrals in 2010, but have stopped consults for this year as the info sessions have filled up for this year. For this reason, I am having my doctor send my referral to Bathurst (Savoie or Semerjian) and Fredericton (Rene Boisvert).
I am looking for some feedback on wait times for the first call! If my referral is sent this week, does anyone know approximately how long gthe wait is to see Dr. Boisvert, Savoie or Semerjian? I am really hoping it is less than 5 years, which is what I am looking at with Beausoleil.
I have looked into having surgery out of province, but have been told NB medicare will no longer cover surgery out of province.
Any info you can provide would be hugely appreciated!
Thanks in advance! :)

Congrats! Good luck on your surgery and recovery! I'm just 7 weeks out and I couldn't be more pleased with my results so far.
