getting lost in the mix

Ok so I have been through the whole pre-op stage and was at the point of booking a surgery date with Dr. Klien through HRRH.  he however is so booked up they couldn't give me a date (their system won't allow them to book past March which is where they are at now). so she gave me 2 options, # stick it out with Dr. Klien, they will call me in a while with a date or #2 they have been transferring over "surgery ready" patients to TWH to fill in dates through the end of this year. 

While I liked Dr. Klien very much, for me with work and recovery, it would be significantly easier to have the surgery before the end of the year, it would make a huge difference.  So I chose this option.  I was told that I was likely going to get a call that day from the manager over at TWH, now almost 2 weeks later (and time running out for optifast start for a 2014 surgery) I have yet to hear anything,

I contacted Debbie, the woman in Dr. Klien's office and was told they should have reached out to me by now, I called TWH and they say they have no record of my information or any transfer of my file, I kind of feel in limbo and its driving me nuts, I hate calling because it seems like such a burden to the office people answering the phone and they are so annoyed with another person not waiting patiently.  TWH didn't even seem to believe me that I was told by Debbie that TWH was supposed to get back to me quickly. 

I'm frustrated and needed to vent, I don't even know where my file is right now

off topic here, not sure if you are aware, but you keep double posting?  advice - be a little more patient, try not to double click on the reply/post button??

In regards to your actual post - crossing fingers for you that you'll get this sorted out soon! ((HUGS))

 

Moving on doesn't mean you forget about things.  It just means you have to accept what happened and continue LIVING
