My doctor in stouffville had his office manager take care of it for me. it doesn't have to be the dr. themselves. maybe these docs don't know that. a lot of them are not very tech savvy so they don't want to do it thinking it will be a long drawn out process.

I'm in Durham.  My Dr reluctantly did the referral. I'm below 40 BMI, so he said they probably wouldn't even consider me.  Took three months for him to complete it and send it on. That was last May '14.  Now I'm seeing the surgeon to get my date on October 15th.
