 * Notability (doctors) is marked as inactive. A better guideline to test this against would be WP:PROF. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:11, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete My customary google search yields very little other than a Twitter page and a few physicians databases. Doesn't pass WP:GNG. As for WP:PROF, none of the 9 criteria seem to apply here which leaves Notability (doctors), which is inactive, but he doesn't meet that anyway, so that leaves nothing, and therefore I must vote to delete.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Weak delete Insufficiently notable per WP:ACADEMIC which is the only applicable category for his inclusion. He has a number of hits at Google Scholar, but on some he is just one of a long string of authors; and on articles where he is the lead author, the citation rate is not terribly high. I could change my mind based on additional evidence, perhaps from someone with more sophisticated search tools. --MelanieN (talk) 16:16, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
