I had my surgeon appointment at TWH. Be prepared everyone getting their appointments soon....my surgery date was booked for August 4th! That's almost a 5 month wait!!! Far cry from the 2 to 3 month wait they mentioned.

I know I should be happy, but right now I'm shocked and disappointed.

That's what I said to my husband! When I was there in February they were booking in April...so 2 months out (they had cleaned up the back-log) and now they are nearly 5 months out?! How does that happen so quick?

I really don't quite understand it myself. I'm guessing summer vacations plays into it.

Yeah.. I had my surgeon appt on Feb 24th..and was shocked that it was a June date they gave me.... seems like we are waiting forever. But they did tell us at the orientation that it could a year from then... and I'm just shy of a year...so I guess I should count myself as lucky...

But it's so hard to wait... especially when we are so close to the end

crazy that you, Michelle had your appt just under a month ago, but your surgery is 2 months sooner than someone who had theirs today. I bet it has something to do with the summer schedules of the surgeons.

Omg. The more I read about these dates, the more anxious I get. I was thinking of like a May or June date. But now I'm thinking that's way too wishful thinking.

Who is your surgeon?
