For those of you *****cently have had surgery at Humber they say their discharge time is 9am is this accurate? Has it ever been later? Do they give you enough notice if you have someone coming from put of town to get you?

I was out by like 1pm.. But that's because it was a Saturday and they were trying to track down glazer before I left.. They were pretty laid back as to when I needed to absolutely be out time wise..

I'm not there yet but I'm closer then I was yesterday!

I had my surgery in March. I was discharged around 2 in the afternoon from Humber. No one seemed to be in any rush to get me out of there!

I was up and ready to go by 7 am on the morning of discharge!!! Dr. Hagan met with my around 8:30 and my family arrived at around 9 and I was off. No one seemed in a rush to get me out.....other than me of coarse. Just an FYI, the HRRH pharmacy doesn't open until 10 am on Saturday so, is possible, have a family member run over and pick up your scripts on Friday!

I was not rushed to leave at all. My family could not come get me until after 12noon, and that was no problem. I don't think you have to worry about being kicked out first thing in the morning!!

Cheers,

Andrea

Ok to add to Jen's question if you're surgery is Tuesday at 2pm then Thursday at 2pm would be the 48hr mark would they wait until Friday at 9am to discharge me or am I discharged on Thursday afternoon?
