I would be freaking and phoning daily. It is NOT okay. Go to someone else who is just as good or better and they should get you in sooner. Call them ask for all your records... and send them on to someone else.
don't cancel the surgery until you have a firm booking. Medically it is NOT okay to wait that long. They are playing with your life.
