Talk:Henry Cotton (doctor)

Untitled

It would seem that this article is not appropriate for category:mental health. I have placed it into category:psychiatry, instead, but considering the nature of the material this may be contentious. --Vincej 14:21, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

If Trenton State had its own page I would link it to Willow Brooks

If Trenton State had its own page I would link it to Willow Brooks but it doesn't so that's why I keep linking it to Doctor Cotton.

BTW should there be a Category listing notoriously bad medical facilities?

Trenton State does have its own page: New Jersey State Hospital at Trenton 68.39.174.238 00:43, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Tone

"Recent attempts to deal with obesity using surgical intervention similar to that performed by Henry Cotton may be seen to be just as inadvisable in one hundred years. Who knows what will take the place of the brutal disfigurement of women suffering from breast cancer or the castration of men suffering from prostate cancer?"

Is this tone really encyclopedic? Doesn't strike me as being so. Comments like this make the whole article seem a bit apologetic in regards to Cotton... --rsgdodge 22:22, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

That was BLATANTLY biased: no encyclopedia articel should ask rhetorical questions unless making a direct quotation from someone. That said, it does have a rather obvious lean and a lack of sourcing for most everything. 68.39.174.238 02:04, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

• Both this article and Focal infection theory need a machete taken to them for their completely inappropriate tone. EEng 07:26, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

Is it "Henry Andrews Cotton" or "Henry Aloysius Cotton" ?

Hello. The article mentions that the complete name of Henri Cotton was "Henri Andrews Cotton", but (at least) 2 references state that it was "Henri Aloysius Cotton": The Lancet (The cautionary tale of psychiatrist Henry Aloysius Cotton) and King's College London (Henry Cotton). So, what is correct?--Damyenj (talk) 16:06, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Cotton removing his own teeth

Did I somehow miss it, or does the article lack mention of the fact that Dr. Cotton eventually pulled out some of his own teeth, too? Okama-San (talk) 08:08, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
