The following is an editorial comment...

Considering how many self-created articles there are about third-rate musicians, singers, actors, DJs etc., I don't know why a doctor was chosen for possible deletion. There is some notability here, it's just buried a bit. Rewrite/refocus and keep!WQUlrich (talk) 22:07, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not notable. None of his qualifications, posts, publications or prizes satisfy WP:PROF in my view. Gilo ö 07:11, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. If the head of the cosmetic surgery institute of one of Asia's largest corporate hospitals is not notable, I wonder

what is? By the way, this dude has been awarded by the President of India!kabirbera ö

Weak keep While I agree with the rationale of the delete comment by (can't read the name in the sig), the sheer volume of borderline notability claims denotes some notability. However, to claim that he was awarded by the president of india, per the keep comment, is a little bit of a stretch - it appears the president presented the award (photo op), not made the award himself.
