Hello, I am with the Calgary clinic and I was curious if people received their surgery date the day they signed their consent forms or was it after.  If after, how long?  Just curious about my timeline.  It feels like forever already and I just eager.

Any input would help.

Im not sure about Calgary but in Edmonton  basically once you sign the forms they  put you on the booking list then you will get a call with your date usually  a week or two afterwards maybe even sooner  but its basically  to book you   wishing you  the best as my  second surgery for revision is  may 26th in Edmonton

You will get a call from your surgeon's office with a surgery date but that comes sometime after signing the papers.  Could take a month or two to get your date, depends on how many people are in line in front of you.  Also, the date you get will likely be 1-2 months away from when you get the call.
