CanadianGirl74 12 Posted June 2, 2014 Hello, can anyone tell me how long it takes from the first appointment to the surgery date? I have my first appointment on June 18th and would love to know what the process is. I'm from Canada so I'm not sure if that makes a difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rhodywoman 145 Posted June 3, 2014 It varies by insurance requirements and surgeon availability here in the states can be as little as 3 months more closer to 6-8 months. Not sure how your national health program works in Canada but that will be a big part of the timeframe. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
