Hey does anyone know the cost for the operation in Edmonton, and any doctors I should use? I think I have a very mild case, but would like to get rid of it none the less. Bambu, you mentioned something about it being covered? Anyone know more about that?

There was a guy from Alberta who had his proceedure done by JCF and if I recall correctly, Alberta medial coverd most of the operation and paid for his airfare also. Don't quote me on this though. My memory is not the best....  :-/

Just tell them that you are going to have day surgery in Toronto and you were wondering if Alberta Health Care or OHIP will cover you for the excision part of the proceedure. Ask about your airfare also!  ;)
