Yes, he had a stroke. Yes, he needs to be on an anticoagulant because he's at high risk of having another, which might just polish him off or worse. And yes, he needs to see a cardiologist. This is not a GP's arena and the GP should know that but elderly patients often get the shrug off because, you know, "they're old and they're going to die soon anyway."
