Draft:John Kevan Healy
| Submission declined on 17 June 2024 by Anuwrites (talk). This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner. This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format.

| Submission declined on 4 April 2024 by Dan arndt (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. Declined by Dan arndt 2 months ago. | |
Comment: Still a well written resume. Didn't make remarkable changes suggested by a reviewer. ANUwrites 10:26, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: This reads like Healy's resume not an encyclopaedic article - needs to be properly referenced with inline citations linked to reliable independent secondary sources - see Wikipedia's Guidelines to referencing for beginners. It lacks a WP:LEDE, explaining what he is actually notable for. Dan arndt (talk) 08:57, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Dr John K. Healy was a pioneer in renal research in Australia. He was the first Lion's Research Fellow at the Princess Alexandra Hospital. He started the LIONS Renal Research Laboratory in Brisbane in 1966, with additional funding from the National Heart Foundation and the National Health and Medical Research Council of Australia. During his tenure at the Lion’s Renal Research Laboratory, he published internationally recognised articles on renal research[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] and developed a widely accepted kidney function test.[11]
In 1979, at the Wesley Hospital, Dr. Healy performed peritoneal dialysis on several patients with acute renal failure and the first hemodialysis at the Wesley. This experience contributed to the initiation in 1989 of the first private dialysis unit in Brisbane, in conjunction with Dr. Philip Boyle. The Dialysis Unit has expanded over the years to become a very large private chronic Dialysis Unit in Queensland.
Dr. Healy served for some years on the Ethics Committee of the Wesley Hospital. He became Chairman of the Medical Advisory Committee of the Wesley Hospital in 1992-3, as he was an ex-officio Member of the Wesley Hospital Board. He was made an Emeritus Fellow of that Hospital in 2003[12].
