@ uyuni Now that I think about it, you are totally right. It is a dangerous thing, but yes, indeed, that is the case, in AT for sure. It's mostly residents or eveninterns. I will withdraw my answer and give you an agree ( with a further note). Cheers!
uyuni Jul 22, 2012:
@ lirka A doctor on call a the neurology department is not necessarily a neurologist. Some of them are, but some of them may be interns, i.e. a doctor on call ( e.g. on night duty) may not yet be a specialist in the field. So, one would not necessarily call him/her a "Neurologe" (i.e. "Facharzt für Neurologie").

@ Brigitte OK, if you insist... ;-))

@ uyuni Please: Don't withdraw your answer! After all I just provided a German interpretation of the acronyms not a translation (I decided to wait for some comment from the asker).

*consultation* in lower case, perhaps neurology dept. too... apologies
Peer comment(s):

agree Lirka : after having been enlightened, I agree. However, I would say "Neurology Dept." or "Dept. of Neurology" and "in agreement" instead of "after consultation" since, IMHO, RS implies agreement between the parties. You are welcome to object further, though :):)

Please see my discussion entry. / Hi lirka: no further objections on a Sunday afternoon... ;-)
agree BrigitteHilgner : Great that you provided the link - finding acronyms in the kudoz glossary can be tricky. Have a nice Sunday.
