 Member Since: 04/02/11 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/3/12 11:22 am I just called and spoke to Rachel, who told me that as my orientation was in Sep, I should be hearing back about my first appt in March/April. She said right now, they are booking appts for those that attended orientatation in May 2011. She said that they are not having to wait too long to get to see the nurse. Hope that helps. I have to keep holding on until then I guess. Not easy but I'm trying. I have a sleep study book for May so it will happen, when I have no idea. Sophia HW: 399 CW: ?

 Ottawa, Canada Member Since: 06/22/11 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/3/12 12:57 pm I had my orientation in August, so it looks like all three of us will be going around the same time. I called two weeks ago and they said I should receive a call in March. By the end of this process, Patience WILL BE our middle names. lol Wishing you a speedy few months.

 Canada Member Since: 06/02/11 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/3/12 5:24 pm Hi everyone.. I'm waiting in Ottawa as well. I just got the call for my first appointment (had my orientation June 3rd). My appointment will be with Dr. Dent on April 10th. I don't know if I would have been booked in sooner if I was seeing someone else or not. I found that I was doing really well with the waiting until I got this call - now I think about it constantly and count down the days, wondering what will happen next, etc... But our time will come! |
