WTG! I too would like to know how you got in so fast. I have had two referrals sent into Dr Ellsmere now and have been on the waiting list since 2010. I have Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and have developed Type 2 Diabetes in 2011, severe sleep apnea, high cholesterol as well as a family history of Heart Disease. As of speaking to Diana Lawler this morning, and not getting a direct answer as to where exactly I am on the wait list and was told that they are only seeing people from 2008 now, and that the list exceeds 2000 people.

There are actually a couple of reason I got a date so fast, one being I had already had everything done in Ontario prior to having to move here so that shaved off whatever time and two I was sent to see the surgent cause my acid reflux is so sever that it has done damage to my throat and
Esophagus to the point that I choke on most of my food, its pretty scary and than he found a hernia so he has to go in to repair those and he is going to do the surgery while he is already in there so this way the acid reflux will stay away and than the fact that I am a Diabetic too

Hello Everyone
I am new to Nova Scotia I moved here in 2010 but not new to OH I orginally started my journey in Windsor Ontario but was denied for Out Of Country Coverage, than we moved here to Bridgewater NS cause my dad was terminally ill. I am happy to be here and that we made the move, I am now booked for surgery with Dr. Ellsmere on April 24 I am so excited and scared at the same time. I was happy to see that there was a forum for Nova Scotia cause it will be nice to meet people in this area who have had it done or are getting ready to have the surgery.
