My doctor sent a referral to Dr. MacDonald for me 4 years ago. I saw on this site that he recently retired! What about my referral? Anybody know what will happen? Are there any surgeons in Nova Scotia still performing these surgeries?

There is one surgeon in NS doing Gastric Sleeve surgery, Dr. Ellsmere at Capitol Health... But be forwarded, they have over a 12 year waiting list for surgeries.(But they will put you on the list) Sadly many have been forced to chose to go to Mexico or elsewhere because of the wait times. Our province is so backward it is not funny, it is very sad actually.... :-(

Yes, waited four years.  Self-paid for life saving surgery.

Shame on NS
