I could  get a Burn Attending (actually, the Burn Center nurses  handled most 

of those transfers, and the Burn Attendings were only needed if  I  required 
further advice on how to package/sedate a particularly  complex  case), I 
could 
get a Medicine Attending, I could get a Peds  Attending, and I  could even 
get 
a Neurosurgical Attending (Anil  Nanda's group was great about  that) but for 
some reason, the best I  could get for trauma service was a  Fellow....and 
they 
still wanted  the images before accepting...

Then call me (day or night) and I will take any super sick surgical patient  
that the origional surgeon is uncomfortable with.   I will first try  to give 
comfort and advice, but if the patient is super sick and the first  hospital 
and surgeon are uncomfortable or have never been there, then I will  accept the 
patient.     Do what is right for the patient at  the time.    Politics 
Later.
