You will be ahead in the game to either get the tube installed or consult with a gastroenterologist, hold he/she in reserve. I opted for the latter. I consulted with a gastro in a large practice and was assured that when I was ready for the peg it would be installed with 24 hours after calling and it was. Darrell
