Comment
[edit]My sense is she's probably notable but this article has gotten WAY out of control, turning into an advertisement, a resume, so unless it's fixed, I support the PROD. The focus should be on notability. The long lists of media appearances should be removed. The problem is -- there's so much stuff to wade through, it's a lot of work to get it under control. I urge the original authors to cut it down substantially to a paragraph or two, emphasizing the notability dimension, and focusing almost exclusively on secondary sources -- where an impartial reporter talks about Axelrod or her accomplishments, not website materials, not brochures from schools or hospitals etc.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 00:22, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Revision
[edit]I tried rewriting it, with a fresh Internet search, and getting references from scratch. She's clearly a notable person, a recognized expert. The problem (and I agree with others here) is with this article's tone and style, so I tried to make it sound more encyclopedic. I think the new article does her justice much more than the old one, which looked like a resume. If people wish to restore some of the wiped-out sections, my strong suggestions is that every line should be referenced. I don't think listing EVERY media appearance was a good idea but detracted from the overall caliber of the article. I'll leave it up to others whether to delete the article or keep it; my sense is the new version is better, and think the article should be kept here at WP.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 01:41, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
- If I'm ever in danger, I want you to save me. This is a heroic WP:RESCUE. I'm removing the PROD notice. Kudos unto you. David in DC (talk) 11:29, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
- I'm assuming you'll do the same for me? :) Thanks for saying thanks. I'll try to link this with a few other articles and remove the "orphan" tag.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 13:14, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

She has made frequent appearances on television shows including the Larry King Live, the Dr. Oz show, the Martha Stewart show,[1] as well as news programs such as CBS News.[2][3] When the wife of presidential candidate John Edwards, Elizabeth Edwards, was diagnosed with breast cancer, Axelrod's views were broadcast.[4] She serves as medical director of the Clinical Breast Services unit of New York University.[5]
Axelrod's opinions have been quoted on issues such as whether a woman with breast cancer should have pre-surgery chemotherapy,[6] and issues regarding breast cancer in terms of obstetrics and gynecology for younger women.[7]
She commented about the difficulties facing women with breast cancer:
“ | It's very confusing. There are no guidelines right now that women can get up in the morning and say with fortitude this is exactly what I'm going to do ... It's like dancing on the head of a pin. -- Dr. Axelrod, 2010, in US News[8] | ” |
Overall, Axelrod is optimistic about the long-term survival rates for women with breast cancer, and commented on CBS News in 2010 that cancer is becoming more of a chronic rather than an always fatal disease.[9]
