Infobox

Lead

"DS" as a shorthand for "Nintendo DS" is obvious and doesn't need to be introduced in parentheses like that (and "Nintendo DS" is not very long in the first place - consider whether it is even worth shortening it). Same for when you introduce it again in the gameplay section.
Is there any reason we're not mentioning the (main) genre in the lead sentence?
Uncurable diseases can already be treated - the two are not synonyms.
Would recommend briefly mentioning what reviewers liked/disliked about the game
Would consider describing Derek as "a surgeon" rather than "a man".
In the note, for the JP title, you give "Chōshittō Caduceus" as the title, which is fine, but I would recommend also adding "Chōshittō Kadukeusu" as the Hepburn romanization as it is spelled differently and shows the native JP pronunciation of Caduceus

Gameplay

using static scenes, character portraits, and text with rare voice clips. - am I to interpret this as meaning that the text sometimes, but not always, is accompanied by voice acting?
Otherwise this seems fine

Synopsis

Stile's - his name is Stiles, not Stile, right?
Relatedly, you sometimes refer to him by his surname and sometimes by first name
Otherwise, this seems fine

Development

When you introduce the acronym RPG, consider writing out "role-playing game" in full to make it clearer to readers unfamiliar with the term
You should mention that ER and Chicago Hope are television series specifically - one could otherwise get the impression that they are lines of surgeon sims

Release

CERO ratings aren't named after the age recommendation, so change "12" to 12 years and up, without quotation marks
The game was instead published by Nintendo of Europe.[12][23] It was released in Europe on April 28, 2006. - these can be combined into a single sentence

Notes that are not part of the GA criteria'

Consider adding alt text to all images to aid readers with impaired vision
Ref formatting is inconsistent, with some websites written in italics and some not.
We don't usually link to multiple official websites for different regions - but if you do want to keep them both, I would suggest grouping them together and not putting Mobygames in the middle

Looks good! I will put this on hold for the standard seven days; ping me when you are done or if you have any questions.--Alexandra^IDV 00:57, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
