I GOT MY DATE
I see that it's been a year since your referral and no surgery date yet. It must be frustrating. I spend a lot of time in the forums and when I see Canadians get the procedure in Canada, most have a schedule similar to yours. It just blows me away. Why all those steps? Is there a fear of litigation? I live in Mississauga and my doctor would not refer me for an OHIP procedure because my BMI is under 40. I don't have a problem with that. In fact, he may have done me a favour. I doubt I could handle the bureaucracy. I researched a surgeon in Mexico and I'm scheduled for a VSG on Sept 26. Obviously, it's self pay. I could have had it this month, but I have a busy summer. I hope you finally get your surgery date and start your weight loss journey.
