I'm a bit unsure if the 'written like advertisement' box should stay, it is relatively a neutral article in my view. I go to this hospital. This does not seem to be saying its better than someone else its stating what the hospital is, where it is, what it has, what it can do. i think it needs to be expanded upon before a real judgement can be made. It's a stub and stubs are often going to sound monotonous and advertisement like. I see it all the time here on wiki Alin0Steglinski (talk) 05:48, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

While the page has greatly improved, previously there were some vague statements about the hospital being nationally recognized as a top-performing hospital. While that may be true, it also suggests an element of advertisement, which is to be avoided on wikipedia. See WP:ADVERT. If the hospital has received such national recognition, the nature of the recognition must be specified and referenced to a reliable source. If you see inappropriate content in other pages, I encourage you to remove it, or otherwise correct it. Happy editing. Rytyho usa (talk) 18:39, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
