Hi Janet, 

It is such a good feeling to know that at least we are in the line, even if the line is loooooooooooong.

Hi Judy, I was just wondering when your referral had been sent, because I am still waiting to hear something too. I will also be going through Humber my referral was sent July 3 and I too have emailed the registry and havent' heard anything back. My Dr hasn't even got confirmation of them receiving the fax. This part of the process is hard because Drs don't have the time to call, email. etc. I guess I will be just waiting my turn like you. Congrats

Hi Deb, My doctor's secretary told me she faxed the referral July 5th.  As far as I know my doctors office never did end up getting any kind of confirmation.  The "booking line" phone number that Wes gave me a couple weeks ago, is the same number that I had to call to confirm my attendance at the information meeting.  Maybe you could try that number... I could only ever leave a message there.  Not sure if that prompted my call back or not, because it was at least a week prior that I called them.  416-747-3879. Hope you hear soon!

ooops, thought I was responding to Debs post.  Hope you see this Deb.

Also, Mum, maybe you should try that number too.

Hey Judy I'll see you there that's my orientation date too !!  They are very slow about letting you know that your referral has been received we sit here nail biting thinking our referral has been lost or something then out of nowhere you get the info. I called and emailed I'm not sure it did anything either but I have my date so now I have to wait for it to arrive :-)

I am so happy for you Judy thats awesome! 

I was told by my doctor that I would be refered to Humber, and they would be in contact with me Referral date: June 26, 2014. But last Thursday I received a letter saying Next Steps: Educational Orientation Session and they have the date of Oct 22 at Toronto Western. Is this the same information session your talking about? I am so clueless with this and I feel lost. Please help :)

 

Thanks B...
