'''James M. Heilman''' (born 1979 or 1980{{LifeData|birthplace=Saskatchewan|birthcountry=Canada}}) is a Canadian emergency physician, Wikipedian, and advocate for the improvement of Wikipedia's health-related content. Hellman is also known as '''Doc James''', the name he uses when he edits articles at Wikipedia.
Heilman is head of the department of emergency medicine at [https://www.interiorhealth.ca/locations/east-kootenay-regional-hospital East Kootenay Regional Hospital ] in Cranbrook, British Columbia, [[Canada]] where he lives.
==Early life==
Heilman was born and raised in rural Saskatchewan. It appears that he received a [[circumcision]] at an early age. His behavior is typical of that of a [[circumcised ]] man.<ref>{{REFweb

|quote=Medical doctors in Australia, Canada, and the United States practiced circumcision in the twentieth century, so these nations have a heavy proportion of circumcised men, some of whom become medical doctors. These circumcised male doctors share the same bias in favor of male circumcision as do other circumcised males.7,31,43_Male Male doctors who were circumcised as infants are more likely to recommend circumcision of infants to parents.

==Views on circumcision==
[[Canada]] has turned away from its former practice of non-therapeutic neonatal [[circumcision]]. Medical societies call it obsolete, non-therapeutic and unnecessary.<ref name="lebourdais1995">{{REFjournal

===Articles relating to male circumcision===
Heilman has taken over the editing of articles relating to male [[circumcision]]. In this role, he now occupies the position formerly held by [[Jake H. Waskett]] and displays a similar circumcision [[bias]]. An examination of the circumcision related articles edited by Heilman, would lead one to believe that he has become an disciple of [[Brian J. Morris]] and his associatesbecause of the frequent citation of Morris' biased articles. Strangely, Heilman, who apparently lacks a [[foreskin]], relies on such men as [[Brian J. Morris]] and [[John N. Krieger]], who also lack a foreskin, for information on the nature of the sensation from the foreskin.
