 * Delete. The article states that she is head of Duke's Internal Residency Program, but this does not satisfy the criteria listed in WP:PROF.  The information listed on her Duke webpage does not seem sufficient for notability and I couldn't find anything else from Google searches.   RJC  TalkContribs 19:52, 29 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete - No significant coverage in reliable sources. -- Whpq (talk) 17:09, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep I think being residency director and vice chairman of the medicine department at a major (maybe top 20) med school meets the spirit of WP:PROF, although admittedly not any specific criteria; she's also of Professor rank and appears to have published reasonably well (per PubMed), although not breathtakingly so. I certainly don't think all residency directors meet this threshold, but as the spouse of a former residency director (note:  with no connection to Duke or to this subject), I do think some residency directors meet notability in the medical field through their roles.

 * Weak delete. If all we can say about her is that she's head of a department or the equivalent, then that's clearly not enough for WP:PROF nor for WP:BIO1E. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:52, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
