Wow! Long wait for initial appointments and NO wait list...

I just got off the phone with my clinic and it looks like it may be Feb 2018 before I even get in for my inital assessments. They are still booking appointments for those who had orientation in April! I know the process takes a bit but I didn't expect it to take that long for the initial appointments. I guess it is a good example of how different each centre operates. They don't have a cancellation list either.

The good news is that apparently after the inital assessments are completed the process is supposed to move along quickly. I hope they are right.

All this would not really matter to me if I wasn't in a time crunch.

I waited about 13 months between the orientation and my initial assessment, which was torture. I feel your pain, and I hope the rest of your appointments come fast and furious
