Hi, my name is Domenic I am in the early stages of considering some type of surgery.
As I understand my family Dr will have to register me with the bariatricregistry.ca and go from there if I want to go through OHIP.
I fall into the BMI of over 35+ ( 37 ) with conditions such as hard to manage diabetes, high blood pressure etc.
My Dr. is a bit old school and warned me that it will be "years" to have something done. I have also read from many other message boards from Canadians and Ontarians that some people are getting in done between 6 and 18 months.
So as you can imagine I am curious as to what is really happening out there
As lots of threads are 3+ years old I write this in hopes that people from the GTA will give me a timeframe of how long it took them from start to finish. Id love to hear from anyone who started the process in 2013 or 2014
Thanks again for reading this, everyone seems helpful and understanding in a world where everything is confusing its a nice change.
I start this process today because at 35 years old, I want to live again
Thanks
