Surgery wait lists

Hi there,

i have been accepted to the bariatric clinic in Winnipeg, but from my understanding it is at least a couple years wait to be seen.  Does anyone have any experience with going out of province to have their surgery done somewhere with a shorter wait?  Is this covered by manitoba health? 

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks!

If you would like to join our facebook page, send me your email and I will add you. There are people there who have gone outo of province and country as well as had surgery in Winnipeg. Some parts are covered as in surgery and I believe some travel costs but not out of country.
