Delete. Notability not apparent here. There may be a push by plastic surgeons and dermatologists to force a Wikipedia presence for PR purposes. Kenneth Kim is another that should be revisited. Xxanthippe (talk) 03:25, 11 October 2013 (UTC).[reply]

I've noticed for years that there has been such a push by physicians of all flavours, but especially by surgeons and even more especially by plastic surgeons. There seems to be an idea among such people that a Wikipedia article is something to be created along with Linkedin and Facebook pages for promotion.

Delete I agree. Fails WP:BIO. There must be a titanic amount, well, a few 10's thousand medical professionals coming to USA from China. Really nothing to make here special. scope_creep talk 14:59 26 October 2013 (UTC)
Delete. No evidence of passing WP:PROF nor WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:36, 13 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
