Z, walking down the hall minding his own business.
Gastroenterologist: Hey Z, I've got a quick consult for you.
Z: Okay
GI: I've got a 95 year old patient from a nursing home here for a PEG placement. Her troponin level is elevated. Her primary care doctor says it is only a troponin leak. Do you think the anesthesiologist for her case will want a Cardiology consult?
Z: Yes
GI: I thought so. Thanks.
Z, thinking "Duh."
