Dr. Carmona is not a Vice Admiral of the US Navy. Rather, he's a Vice Admiral in the United States Public Health Service. "Dr." is in his own biography on the website because Dr. is a term of respect for those who have earned a medical degree. It wasn't necessary to remove every instance of "Dr." from the article. -- ABQCat 01:29, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Why did he quit? Anyone have a reliable source that states this?
since when has UCSF awarded bachelors degrees?
I noticed that the reference to Dr. Carmona's statement on global warming was just changed to reference the more general issue of global climate change. I'm unclear as to why the editor did this, but didn't want to quickly revert a good-faith edit. In the reference, Carmona mentions the specific topic of global warming, so it seems most appropriate to me to reference that and not global climate change in this article.

Several sources cite Richard Carmona as member of board of directors of E-Cigarette company NJoy. [1] Seems relevant, based on his actions as Surgeon General to discourage second hand tobacco smoke. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Big al in big d ( talk • contribs) 02:38, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

His official photo shows Purple Heart and Bronze Star ribbons, but the text and sourcing for the article is missing. – S. Rich ( talk) 03:27, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
