HRH or GGH? And what is missing in my packet?? Doubles doubles everywhereI am

Hi! I just got my orientation appointment packet for HRH ( actually it was several doubles of the same 2 pages! I think it was supposed to be more than 11 pages of the appointment and 11 of the parking) ) so I will need to call them.

Because of where I live in rural ontario I often get automatically put to the Toronto area but when I show my actual address I can usually switch to a closer hospital. Guelph is only 40 minutes away while the Toronto one is 55 without traffic. 

So I prefer Guelph for convenience but I do want a Dr well versed in VSG since I have some malabsorption  issues and anemia. If I get approved even, eh. 

So I have read some older posts about the two centres. And I am wondering how any current clients are feeling? 

I love Guelph.

I switched from HRRH to Guelph because I was so frustrated - 19 months and only got to orientation. (they lost my file for a year, lots of waiting, backlog due to move, more waiting, nobody ever calls you back, inefficient process, etc)

Guelph is so much more efficient and the staff are fabulous, always available to answer questions. and they move much more quickly due to their efficiency. the package they send you gives you steps on how to move things along - pre-assessment blood tests, sleep test, whatever - get those done before orientation and you'll save so much time.

dr. reed started the Guelph clinic. I bet he's the guy to talk to re your issues. Lori is fabulous, ask her anything and she is so kind and straightforward.

best of luck!

Thank you. I will call tomorrow to see what they say. The paperwork mishap had me abit concerned about the receptionist /administration *****ow do you miss 11 doubles ?) but the orientation is the end of the month. Just want to make the right call. 

Who did you contact to transfer? Guelph or Toronto? 

Thanks Again.
