Looking for a doctor in Canada

Hi There Shane,

I live in Edmonton and as far as I can tell the most experienced surgeon in Alberta is Dr. Dan O’Connell. I met him and also chatted with some of his former’s Eagle patients. It was all a positive experience. He takes the bones out via the intraoral approach. Unfortunately the waiting list is very very long due to COVID right now. Unless you are willing to wait over 6 months for the surgery, I would say best to look elsewhere.

I’ve found getting timely help with this problem (<6 months wait) in Canada to be impossible. It seems to be a big deficiency in the system up here. Travelling to the US to one of the really experienced surgeons may be worth the extra expense and hassle to get treatment in a month or two and start healing.

Hang in there - none of this is easy!
