How long does the bariatric surgery process take in Calgary

I have just been referred for bariatric surgery in Calgary. I'm wondering if anybody can tell me what the wait is like for the entire process from start to finish? I have ready that the wait is 7 to 10 years, but my doctor tells me it's more like 9 months to a year.

I seriously doubt the wait time is 7-10 years. That sounds like something a republican in the US would say about the Canadian medical system. Listen to what your doctor says, he knows more about the local process than anyone else.

I would listen to your doctor. Only places I've heard of extreme wait times, are in some of the maritime provinces, mostly due to lack of surgeons. Hopefully its improved since I read that stat.

I'm from Ontario, and it averages 1 year to a year and a half, sometimes less. From start to finish for me it was 11 months.

Good luck with your journey!
