This article is a puff piece about an ordinary doctor in New Jersey. He is not notable. Chutznik (talk) 15:18, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Doctor Noto is more than just a physician. He is a specialist in stem cell therapy and among just a few dozens doctors in the country who does what he does. To say he is an ordinary physician is incorrect. He's expertise in regenerative medicine has be sought out by many media outlets who trust his opinion. He most certainly deserves to be recognized with a Wikipedia page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.116.32.121 (talk) 13:28, 20 April 2012 (UTC) — 69.116.32.121 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * Delete I suppose in a sense all physicians are notable, but Wikipedia has criteria for inclusion here, which are explained at WP:BIO and WP:ACADEMIC. This physician does not meet either of these criteria. A search of Google Scholar finds only a single publication with his name on it (along with three others) and it is cited only three times, so he does not even come close to meeting WP:ACADEMIC. Google News Archive finds nothing of significance so he fails WP:BIO. There are other places where this physician and his work can be promoted, but Wikipedia is not one of them. --MelanieN (talk) 15:07, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
