I am going through Hamilton and just got my letter for my first appointments. Included is a requisition for an ECG. When I see others' timelines I don't see that as one of their tests. Has anyone had to do one?

At Humber it's part of your appointment with Dr Glazer, and done again during the PATT (Pre-Admission Teaching & Testing) appointment that you have about a week before your surgery.

I was exempt only because I had had a lot of testing a year previous (chronic pain that was thought to be a possible heart issue). And yes, I had one done at PATTS just three days before surgery.
