English term or phrase: senior fellows
Senior
fellows had warned us that surgeons would request
echos on flimsy grounds. A post-op patient might have a slight
decrease in blood pressure, and they’d
want an echo to rule
out tamponade. A patient might have a slight increase in his
liver enzymes, and the surgical fellow would say it was because
of hepatic vein congestion—unlikely!—
and
want to rule out
tamponade. Sometimes you’d ask for a patient’s vital signs, and
it would turn out the patient had normal heart rate and blood
pressure, and the surgical fellow—on call and under
the gun
himself—would
admit he was just being cautious. In that case,
senior
fellows urged us to push back, question, cajole—“
Dude,
can’t
this wait until
morning?”—anything
short of outright
refusal, which could get you fired.

neutral  Stuart and Aida Nelson: I find your solution of 'colleghi' for fellows very good but I don't think that 'anziani' is right here. A senior worker is usually somebody with more experience. They can also be young not necessarily old.
