Orientation finally here!
Congratulation! I am going through st joes. I had my orientation last July 29th and my first appointment with the nutritionist is not until May 14th. I am hoping that I get my surgery in 2014 but not really sure that it will happen. Things seem to move slowly there and my understanding is there was a flood recently in a couple of the operating rooms so things are a bit more backed up than normal.
I'm also at St. Joes Hamilton. Orientation was July 22 and my first appointments are May 7th, very similar to post above. Good luck to you!
