POV

This is a POV article and needs to be wikified. A few comments:

"Sworn enemy of the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA)" -- That is a pretty bold statement. Cite sources to back it up or remove it.
"Its members participate in jet-setting around the world under the guise of academic medecine." (sic) -- This is a rather inflamitory statement and again, unless you can cite a reliable source This should be removed.
"a chosen few of the top GI doctors throughout the United States have had the honor of leading the college in an ethical, academic, administrative and spiritual manner towards better doctoring." -- Now I'm just confused, you attack them in the previous paragraph, and now you appear to be praising them? I'm not advocating a POV skew here, but it appears the author isn't even sure which side they are on.
"The college's first female President was Christina Surawicz, M.D." -- Why is this relevent? Were they the first Gastroenterological to have a woman president? If you are only going to make mention of the current president and the first female president, at least include some context as to why it is pertinant.
You should start your Article with the name in bold. E.g. American College of Gastroenterology is a society founded in 1932 that serves to advance the scientific study and medical practice of diseases...

I don't know anything about ACG, or I'd just clean this up myself. Please fix your article.Isotope23 17:42, 28 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

"More than 12,0000 physicians from 82 countries are members of the ACG." "12,0000" is a confusing number. Should it be 12,000, or 120,000? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.77.182.221 (talk) 16:51, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
