    Hi...I'm new here. I live in Ottawa. Are there any clinics in Ontario who does the Gastric Sleeve and it's covered by OHIP? I got approved for the Gastric bypass surgery, but I think it's too invasive for me. Thanks, Nad

    Hi All,

    So nice to see Canadians around here.
    Although it seems like this thread is somewhat older.
    Has any of you suffered from acid reflux before the sleeve and how are you doing with it now?
    Also what size of bougie did you get?

    @Nad, I am in Ontario and yes there is a Bariatric section at the Ottawa hospital and if they approve you it is covered by OHIP.
    You should get a referral through your family doctor.

    hey I'm in Montreal, and am just beginning this journey. I have been referred to two surgeons the problem is I'm looking at a 12 month wait time just to get in for my initial consultation then the average wait time for non diabetic patients is anywhere from 1-5 years!! I am currently in the early stages of research, and am interested in having surgery in Mexico.

    what was your wait time and the whole process like considering you are in Quebec like me
