Woodhull Medical Center → Woodhull Medical and Mental Health Center – I suggest this page be moved provided by the whole name because of the evident difference in few websites. Sunrise In Brooklyn ✉ 05:16, 21 April 2021 (UTC) —Relisting. Bada Kaji (talk) 15:49, 10 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Oppose: Much less concise, and no evidence of WP:COMMONNAME usage provided (and seems unnecessary, since most readers probably already understand that mental health treatment is commonly offered by medical centers). — BarrelProof (talk) 17:51, 10 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

This anesthesiologist at Woodhull, Dmitry Shelchkov, made repeated mistakes in delivering babies, one of which finally caused a fatality in 2020. He lost his license in 2021. This death got extensive media coverage and demonstrations by community activists.

A Deadly Epidural, Delivered by a Doctor With a History of Mistakes Inspectors found that an anesthesiologist at a Brooklyn hospital made numerous errors in administering epidurals. Some were life-threatening. One was fatal.
