Changing hospitals

Did anyone transfer out of Humber ? Is there anything I can submit in writing ? They have me running in circles saying that it's the new hospital who submits the request when on the other end I am told a totally opposite thing. I am so done with Humber, it's not even funny, just trying to finalize this hopefully this year.

Any insight or experience is appreciated

Hi there , 

First off ..sorry to hear you are having problems with this ! This experience is long enough and we have to be as patient as possible , but when we run into issues it can be infuriating !! I have had a few issues with my doctors office (mainly reception forgetting stuff and losing stuff etc ) and it really can get tiring when you have to keep calling and reminding them about stuff .I have never changed hospitals, but just wondered why you were keen to change ? I will be having surgery out of Humber with Dr Klein , im anxious to hear what sort of issues you are having . I know it's not the same experience for everyone but ...im just being nosey I guess ! Lol 

Hope you get things sorted out soon and back on track .

Hi there, I transferred out of Humber also. I had asked for a second opinion as I was not comfortable with my experience at Humber. I went to another hospital and was pleased so I asked them if I could transfer. They told me that Humber had to initiate the transfer. Humber had to send my file back to the registry and tell the registry where I wanted to be transferred to. I waited a few weeks after requesting this and called to follow up at my new centre. They told me the transfer had not been completed as yet. I called back to Humber and was told she thought she requested the transfer but guesses she forgot, and she did it while I was on the phone.
