At TWH, if that makes a difference. I am swamped with work... Kinda hoping they just over extended that estimated appointment, and it will be less time...Can anyone confirm how long their PATTS appointment did take?

Agreed to a microbiota intestinal study, so will be glad to get the stool sample out of my freezer tomorrow... The idea of poop in my freezer, just doesn't sit well.

Holy! Five hours... I guess I will just have to not make any work commitments tomorrow, and book off the entire day. Just to be safe.

Thanks :)

I went through Ottawa, and my PATTS was the morning of a huge snowstorm at the end of January this year. I was 30 mins late arriving (apparently so was the staff!) and my whole appointment took me about 2 hours from start to finish.

I hope yours goes quickly... oh yes, get the poop out of the freezer! YICK!!!!

I am in Michigan so not Canada but my Patts appointment is scheduled for 4 hours so I would venture on the safe side and take the day off work. Remember you are doing this for you so let work go for a day and focus on you, really get into the information and out of work.

Woohoo, in and out in 2.5 hours. I suspect the long weekend had something to do with this...
