ER Stories: “This doctor simply cannot function without calling a consultant in to see their patient. Whether they need to be admitted or whether they can be discharged, this doctor MUST have a consultant involved. Patient has pneumonia? Call Pulmonary. Patient has chest pain? Call Cardiology. Pt has a sprained finger? Call Orthopaedics. Pt is upset? Call psych.
In my opinion, this type of doctor is costing the health care industry tons of money.”
