"the Paul McCartney of medicine"? edit

Oswald Hope Robertson edit

I find it extremely difficult to credit this medical pioneer from World War I would ever have been referred to as "the Paul McCartney of medicine". Apart from the meaninglessness of the phrase itself, it would seem to be wholly anachronistic since Paul McCartney's name did become well-known for more than forty years after Oswald Robertson's most noted achievements.

Surely this silly monicker should be removed unless there is a clear and credible source cited for its usage? Dr Birnam (talk) 12:27, 28 February 2015 (UTC) 28th February 2015Reply

  Removed I agree, that's a pointless, POV sentence. Joseph2302 (talk) 12:30, 28 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
