 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article creation data and filing date okay. Article length okay at 2652 bytes readable prose size.  Article sourcing and neutrality good, no obvious copyvios to my eye.  Hook size okay, hook neutrality okay, hook sourcing half online and half off but the latter can be verified online too.  QPQ done.  So all looks good.


 * I would add that although not required for DYK, there are some things that could be added. I would make Babies Hospital a link at the top and let the redirect take the reader to its history, rather than the parenthetical you have later.  Mention could be made of the book The McIntosh Era at Babies Hospital, 1931-1960: A Commemorative Volume to Honor Rustin McIntosh published by Babies Hospital in 1960, kind of like a Festschrift of sorts.  You probably can add an image of the subject, such as this one, via the fair use "unique historic image" rationale – I've done that for some academics of past eras where getting a free image is very unlikely.
