Parents of children who've been waiting years to have routine, non-urgent surgery at SickKids to correct a birth defect say they have few options either they keep waiting or leave the country as the hospital struggles to reduce a growing surgical backlog.A total of 698 children were on a waiting list for hypospadias surgery at SickKids as of Oct. 31, making up around 10 per cent of the 6,021 patients waiting for all kinds of surgeries.
