The question was time between referral and appointment. I was referred in February 2022 and had my first contact within 2 weeks. My cardiologist sent all of my reports and there was much email and patient portal activity within a month. First phone appointment was in May and I was told I would be contacted very soon to set up a surgery date. Someone dropped the ball and it was 2 weeks (after I contacted them through patient portal), before the next step happened. I was scheduled for July 21 with 2 days of tests and interviews beforehand.
