That makes total sense to me, thank you for the clarification! I would definitely want to speak to the person doing my procedure before I had it. Good God who wouldn’t? I’ve learned here how different it can be for Canadians than us in the States. But I’ve never read where a member from Canada didn’t have an appointment with their surgeon prior to the procedure for all the things that need to be covered!
It sounds like you have your list of questions ready, good for you! Hold your ground if you can and get them answered. Maybe you can keep calling the Interventional Radiologist’s office for that much needed and for me, expected appointment. In the States, we have a saying that the squeaky wheel is the one that gets greased…
Good luck and please keep us informed, it’s how we all learn!
