Received a call today that my transfer request to Guelph has gone through.  I have to go to an orientation on April 9th.  Interesting to hear that their process is a little different than Humber.  But very excited to get going especially since I have been bored as I am not working right now.

Hey Sandra... Glad you got the transfer and can now continue on with the process. I had my surgery in Guelph and I quite liked almost everyone at the clinic. They are very thorough and helpful. Best of luck with everything! Kim

Thank you Kim.  I was actually at the site a few weeks ago asking how I transfer and they were fabulous.  Told me what I needed to do.  I'm glad I switched cause I really didn't see the point of driving 2 hours when Guelph is 20 minutes from where I live.

Completely understandable and you will really appreciate being close to home when you have your surgery too. Hope it all goes smoothly from here. I was about 11 months from orientation to surgery and probably could have been quicker if I had been able to take every appointment slot they offered me. Good people there so you're in good hands! ☺️

Thanks.  I'm very glad I switched and I had joined the FB Guelp and area Bariatric Group.  Didn't realize there was another group.

I just called Humber and asked to be transferred to Guelph.   If Guelph has the room they will accept you.

Hi, I called Humber today to switch to Guelph and the lady just said okay. Then I told her that I was to have Orientation on Feb.14 at Humber and that I had all my paper work from Dr. ($75) and my part completed and sent to Humber via Xpresspost Friday. I asked if they would forward that to Guelph and she said no they will just destroy it and I will have to do different forms from Guelph. Really!!!!

Not sure why she would say that cause Humber sent everythi g in ny file to Guelph.   Also not sure why it cost you $75 to send stuff from your doctors office to Humber.
