• Delete per above. Not notable. DarthVader 08:31, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete -- sorry, not notable -- MrDolomite 14:34, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete -- could be above my notability threshold, but the article makes no case. Some reputable secondary sources, or, some research papers could change my mind. snug 18:41, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Transplant doctors are rare. Some research papers have been added to the article under "Recent publications". TruthbringerToronto 19:16, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Comment: I don't know how many there are, but there are at least 944 members of the American Society of Transplant Surgeons whose name contains the letter "a"; I typed in "a" on their Member Search page: [1]. I think the question is whether or not this physician is a notable transplant surgeon? I searched pubmed and found only two articles (the same two you added) containing her name: [2]. This is actually quite paltry for someone in academia. -Medtopic 19:32, 23 June 2006 (UTC) (Additional note: It appears she is in private practice, not in academia: [3].) -Medtopic 19:34, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
