Can anyone tell me if there are any private rooms in the Bariatric ward in TWH?  Is there semi private? Or are they all ward rooms (3-4 guests per room)?

I think they are all semi or private.  At least where I was.  I had a semi (didn't pay anything) My roomate was lovely and we are still in touch on FB.

They have wards, semi and privates - I was lucky to have my insurance pay for a semi - and I splurged the 70$ for the private - it was money well spent!

Hi Lisa C! Can hit let me know how long it is between your surgeon appointment and surgery date? I'm at Toronto Western too and my surgeon appointment is June 23rd. I'm so curious at the timing between surgeon appointment and surgery date. Thanks!! And good luck!
