With the article featured on the front page at the moment, I am reluctant to edit. But the final couple sentences misrepresent the cited article. Perhaps more important, it is giving a lot of attention to one specific patient's case where the medical center was not the primary institution involved, and were the ones who ultimately made the correct diagnosis. I'd be tempted to remove the sentences entirely, or perhaps break them out into a section on 'medical complaints's ort something.
I agree with you, Bagheera. It's undue emphasis on 2 "bad" outcomes. Some of the negative details were added to shore up "Notability" or something. I'm going to be BOLD! --Kenatipospeak!05:57, 23 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
Hi Alegh, and thanks for your suggestions. I'm afraid I don't understand your edit request. I get that references 1 and 2 are deadlinks. Are you asking us to replace those with kccllc.net as a reference? But I don't see any mention of 357 beds in the reference. Alternatively, are you asking us to mention the conditions of the sale in the article? If so, you need to specify the exact sentences you wish to have inserted and where in the article they should be inserted. Best, Altamel (talk) 17:27, 3 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
