Humberites! Humberonians!

I'm asking people who have been through or are going through the process at Humber about timing. I know it's been asked before and nothing is carved in stone but I'm trying to make decisions on some traveling plans coming up in June and in October. So any info will help me. My orientation is May 5.

1) does it seem like they are up to date or backed up?

2) average time from orientation to next appointments?

3) average time from orientation to surgery?

Many thanks in advance,

Leslie

My timeline is in my signature. Referral to surgery date was 10 months. You need to stay on top of phoning them to see if any cancellations and if they have looked at your file etc. It seems like a long time but before you know it, its surgery day!

I went to my orientation in September 2015 and had surgery in January 2016. I think it was a bit longer because they were in the process of moving locations.

I had a good experience there. Hope you do too.

are you saying 4 months from orientation to surgery? WOW! Thats way faster than TWH.

Yikes! I made a typo. My surgery was January 2017, not 2016.

Sorry!!

I am pretty sure I fell through the cracks.

Referral: May 2016

Orientation: August 2016

1st appointment (surgeon): April 6, 2017.

I had to call several times, finally after crying I got an appointment date. I'm not feeling optimistic about the wait for a surgery date.

My dates are far apart like your own. Orientation to my first appointment with the surgeon was forever! And now have to wait from late Feb to early May for appointment number two and then in June for my trio appointment. To be honest there might be time between them all and I don't always have patience but I have been working hard on making small impactful changes pre-surgery and that is occupying my brain.
