As SickKids surgical backlog grows, family waits 3 years for crucial procedure


The family received a January 2023 date for their son's hypospadias surgery three years after his initial diagnosis. That's left George to languish for the past three years on a waiting list for hypospadias surgery at SickKids. Kelley said SickKids has three pediatric urology surgeons capable of performing hypospadias surgery, but only one regularly performs it. Meanwhile, the waitlist for hypospadias surgery has been growing. Are you a parent whose child is part of Ontario's surgical backlog and you'd like to talk about it?
