Divine Confetti 0 Posted February 19, 2020 Please only answer if you’re in Ontario!!!! How long did you wait for sleeve surgery if you had it done through ohip and your family doctor? Please only answer if you got it done in the last couple years. If your GP refused you did anyone go abroad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ms.sss 15,721 Posted February 19, 2020 Had I not chickened out TWICE, it would have been 9 months between that first day I approached my PCP to a surgery date. ------------------------------------------------------ March 30 2017 - approached my PCP & got the referral April 24 2017 - accepted into program by OBN June 2017 - Mandatory Info Session July 2017 - met with Surgeon, lab work October 2017 - Dietitian, Nurse & Social Worker Appts, Echocardiogram, Surgery Date given for Dec 2017 Dec 2017 - got cold feet, put surgery on hold. May 2018 - decided to go forward again, re-did labs & Echo, 2nd Surgery Date given for July 2018 June 2018 - got cold feet AGAIN, put surgery on hold AGAIN. Sept 2018 - 3rd times a charm: requested a new surgery date, got 3rd Surgery Date for Oct 2018 Oct 24 2018 - Finally got it done. ------------------------------------------------------ ** My surgery was covered by OHIP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
