Does anyone know?
Hello!
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season!
I was just wondering if anyone knew if the St.Joes in Hamilton, wait times from Orientation to Surgery have changed. I have heard rumor that they are possibly getting more efficient? and less waiting time?
Thanks!

Id guess it depends on which tests you will need to do.
My longest wait besides referral to orientation was meet the surg Aug 7/12 to a surg date call Nov 10/12 for surg on nov 22/12.
The in between appoints were pretty balanced. About every 6-8 weeks or so.
Good luck with everything!
