Does anyone know why people in Durham region go to Humber River but you're in Brampton and you're going to East General?

The general rule of thumb used to be, if you are seeing the surgeon now, you will likely have your surgery within 6-8 weeks. But OR times in many hospitals have been cut due to funding ( I know this cuz I also work in a hospital and was told this very same info by my PS today) So realistically, March could be a right timeline.

You could always ask to be put on a cancelation list...
