I do suggest you call your dr.'s office. Where i will be operated, I have 14 days of liquid diet, and then the operation. Not all doctors function the same way.
Just call to be on the safe side.

You can call his office at 506-548-9960 or 544-3710. He has a clinic at the Bathurst hospital. The lady only takes calls on mondays.
The operation cost nothing that I heard of, its covered by medicare of NB.
Hello, I sent my request in December of 2008 and will be seeing him for the time at the end of october, so it took a while before i got an appointement.....don't give up, your time will come.
Great news...i heard back from Dr. Savoie's office and I have my first appointement with him on October 26th. What should i expect from that point on? How much time before the operation?
Hi, I spoke to the clinic and Dr. Savoie is planning on meeting new patients in the fall...At least its getting closer than before to finally meeting him and get things started. Hang on tight gang, our day will come !!
Hello,
I am happy to hear that all is well with you. I haven't heard back from his office nor the hospital. My request was sent in back in december 2008.
I really hope to see him soon so that i can get this process done really soon.
Do you think I should call and ask or just wait it out?
Thanks for keeping me up with the latest news.
