Have any of the Canadians here looked in to having the surgery in Canada? If so, what was the estimated wait times? I'm assuming the Canadians going to Mexico are mostly because of the long wait times.

I was a "perfect candidate in Ontario... went through all of the tests and hoops for months... they said somewhere between 18+months )18 was the absolute lowest but it was increasing. However, they adopted the "Edmonton model" in October and told me I was no longer a candidate because I didn't have 2-3 co-morbidities and mobility issues, so I was basically kicked out of the surgical option and into the "life style" change program where you have opti-fast for 12 weeks.. sorry, I don't need a kick start to a diet, I've been there done that and gained more than I started with. Basically... I told them to shove it, asked them to send me my denial letter, and booked for March 4 in Puerto Vallarta with Dr Joya!!!
