Comment: In order:~ Websites like MyHoustonSurgeons (I assume its the same website but there is not URL for the first one) are not independent so no notability.~ Articles written by the subject do not confer notability.~ Articles by Forbes Contributors are not considered reliable for in determining notability.~ The website of the subject does not confer any notability.+ The article by the Chronicle (not the video) is the best source you have, but BLP need multiple good sources./ Moritoriko (talk) 07:11, 18 June 2025 (UTC)
