Private Elbow Replacement Surgery | Find Accredited Canadian Surgeons

What is Surgency?

As a family doctor in the public system, I believe transparency is a form of care. I created Surgency to help my patients struggling on long waitlists who wanted to understand all their options for timely medical attention.

Surgency is a free resource designed to empower and educate—helping you understand private pathways and find accredited surgeons within Canada. I hope Surgency brings you clarity.

Confirm your diagnosis. Most patients start with a family doctor or specialist who confirms that surgery is advisable. A private surgeon can also confirm the diagnosis if needed.
‍
Research.
- You can find surgeons in Vancouver, British Columbia; Calgary, Alberta; Toronto, Ontario; and Montréal, Québec on our app, and review qualifications, as well as pricing.
  ‍
Schedule an initial consultation. Most surgeons offer in-clinic and online consults.
- Consultations are usually booked within days or a few weeks.
- Note: expect a consultation fee between $150 - $350.
- We recommend booking 2 - 4 consultations with different surgeons to better understand your options.
  ‍
Consultation. The surgeon will review your condition, symptoms, and any previous treatments or diagnostics, such as x-rays or MRIs.
‍
‍Post consultation. The surgeon will then review your case and provide surgical (and non-surgical) options based on your needs; review the risks and expected outcomes; and present pricing and scheduling options.
‍
Schedule your surgery date. Once you confirm the procedure and payment, the clinic will schedule your surgery—generally within a few weeks.
