* Wait times in the public system depend on many factors that include, but are not limited to:
- Which province you live in
- Whether you are an urban or rural resident
- The urgency of your condition
- Your age. Many elderly patients are simply never going to get elective surgeries such as hip replacements
** Wait times for clients of Timely Medical Alternatives depend only on:
- The urgency of your condition. As an example – we can arrange for cardiac consultations normally within one week. In emergencies, we can arrange for next-day consultations with the surgery/procedure to follow immediately.
