FAQs
Why am I waiting?
- The time you are given to check in may not reflect the time you are going to be seen by the surgeon. You should allow 3 hours for your visit including registration, x-rays, and seeing the surgeon.
- Some patients may take longer to treat than others
- The surgeon may be delayed
- Emergency patients are cared for first
Why are some patients called before me?
- Some patients are called for another surgeon
- Some patients are called for x-rays
- Some patients are called to receive treatment by the Clinical Team (PA, NP/Nursing, Allied Health or Learner)
- We do our best to keep all patients’ charts in order, so they are cared for in order
Does OHIP cover all my care costs?
- Not all equipment and supplies are covered by OHIP. Some things that are not covered include: wrist splints, air casts, and fiber glass casts. Your extended health care coverage (private insurance) may pay for these. The Clinical Team will provide you with a detailed bill for those items that are not covered.
Referral Process
The referral process is made through a direct referral from a hospital/urgent care center or family doctor to a specialist or the clinic in general.
