Hi Everyone,

New here!  Just starting my process.  I am from London and just received my notice for my Orientation Session which will be in Windsor.  My question is will all my appt's be in Windsor?  But my Sx in Guelph? 

 

Thanks :) 

Referral requested April 8, 2014 with Family Dr, .....April 25, 2014 received notice from Hotel Dieu Grace of Educational Orientation Session on July 10, 2014,

Everything will be in windsor except your surgery.  You will probably be sent to Toronto for surgery unless Guelph lifts their restriction on Windsor patients (they are too backed up)

Oh thanks for the kind words.  It helps when you can read about the experiences of others. This board is also so great for that. 

If ever I can help you, please don't hesitate to drop me a note here and I'll send you my email.  Although I don't always post I am still reading this board frequently

Hello,  I was told it would take 3-4 weeks to hear back about my referral... I'm happy it was so quick.  Feb seems like a long time.  I would ask your Dr to resend his/her referral again. Or at least call and confirm with the Barriatric centre that they did in fact  received the fax back in Feb...... Just  my 2cents to help out a fellow Londoner :)

I guess I am glad I was sent to Guelph originally. I live 20 min NW of London, work in London. Have had all my appts there so far, and this is where my surgery will be. OK with me. One of my best friends lives in that city!
