Quote from Captain Stottlemeyer in Mr. Monk and the Red Herring

Captain Stottlemeyer: Miss Teeger, there's a person we sometimes bring in. He's a former detective. He sort of specializes in cases like this.
Natalie: Great, let's call him.
Captain Stottlemeyer: It's not that easy. You see, he's, uh, he's taking some time off. He's sort of working through one or two personal issues right now. But I think if you were to talk to him and ask him yourself, he might change his mind.
