If it's a medical issue, you consult a doctor or specialist. So I would translate this as "consultando"

disagree  Susana E. Cano Méndez: The gerund in Spanish does not work as in English --"The conjuring" = "El conjuro", so "(the fact of) consulting" = "la consulta". // So "consultas", as in Natalia's answer.

  -> It is not a one time activity, so it may be consultando, there is no "The" so it may be a continuous activity
disagree  Giovanni Rengifo: It definitely wouldn't work as a noun here.
6 hrs
  -> Consultando isn't a noun, it's the activity that is taking place, as in the original English text. Consulting is not a noun in the original text, it's a verb
