Topic: RE: Meet the surgeon in Hamilton

Hey Jess,

I just had my surgeon appointment on November 7 in Hamilton and right after my appointment I was instructed to go to the booking desk because I had no more tests to complete. When I went there she gave me all my pre-op stuff and told me she would call me with my surgery date in about a month. She said she's looking at surgery end of December, beginning of January.

Hope this helps, and good luck on your journey!

Kimberly

Topic: Meet the surgeon in Hamilton

Hey everyone! I've been on this board since about January and I finally get my meet the surgeon appointment on December 12th and I still have the second round blood work and post op nutrition class to go. Anyone recently had surgery in Hamilton know how long the wait between meet the surgeon and actual surgery?

thanks!

Hi there,

I was referred Oct 2017 to TWH and I just received my Surgeons appointment for March 22nd, 2019. I'm assuming it's abiut 2-3 months after that for surgery.

I've had my winter boots for like 15 years. The past couple of years I've looked for a new pair but could never find ones that fit just right (I have wide feet, and a lot of the boots were kind of tight on my lower legs). I just had surgery in Sept, so I'm hoping by next season I can buy a nice pair!

Hahaha. That is super funny and something I am looking forward to.

I wear a 12WW so it is quite a challenge finding shoes. Good for you!!!

That's why DH and I go to the VIP theatre. We can put our feet up, DH can have a beer and dinner, I get a Starbucks and a Cobb Salad. Not a rodent in sight.

They were bloody loose- I lost weight from my feet, too! I was wondering why there was so much space and I was dragging my feet and then I remembered: I had RNY!!! Crazy!
