Congratulations on getting through the first step!

Just a tip, contact the Bariatric Registry in a couple weeks to confirm that they received the referral, and to confirm your hospital.

At times this journey may seem like it takes forever, but it's so worth the wait.

Congrats!  Guelph is an amazing center.  I am having my surgery there on May 29th!  I don't know how they pick the center as I'm from London and was sent to Guelph, yet someone else further south in London was sent to Windsor.  

Best of luck!  Keep us posted!
