  7. I would contact his office and remind him, I know how the waiting is, I felt the same way when I finished my 6 moth requirement and then had to wait an addtional 5 months months for surgery do to the long wait list . Do not keep waiting contact the doctor or the case manager that is handling all the schedule of your appointments. Good luck my friend and remember the surgery is so well worth the wait.
