I reverted the name to Dr Nick Riviera -- it is more commonly used. If anything, the article ought to be called Dr Nick,[1] which is one of the redirects. Nephron T|C 02:16, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
What's the source for his Puerto Rican background? Siyavash 03:23, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
In Spain the voice has an Argentinian accent. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.13.115.138 (talk • contribs) 20:32, 17 January 2007
Yes, and I don't get the "citation needed" thing. What citation can I provide on this situation ? Just watch a frigging episode in the european spanish dub and check it for yourself. There are plenty on Youtube—Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.155.193.98 (talk • contribs) 12:44, 18 May 2007
citation needed? In the spain dub (castillian spanish) he has an Argentinian accent... PERIOD —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.9.165.136 (talk) 18:49, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
His Argentinian accent is strong, parodic and even ridiculous. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.153.19.114 (talk) 10:00, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
I couldn't find a single primary source showing he is a Sigma Chi. The best thing I could find was this video, but that doesn't prove he is a Sig, it just shows he was at a Sigma Chi party. If anyone has a primary source please use it and put the statement back up. Acidskater 01:49, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
I'm afraid I can't do it right now, but this needs to be updated to reflect his death in the film.--63.224.239.149 07:14, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Although, it is an uncertain death, so the text should stay present tense until we have confirmation.Davie4264 18:28, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
One is implied that the Dr Nick is Argentine due to his accent in Spanish dub from Spain. In English the Argentineans usually they do not have an accent that identifies them so I suppose that for that reason it is not known very well from where it is in the version in English.
should it be noted that he suceded in heart surgery-RJ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.147.197.46 (talk) 04:56, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
In the movie Dr Nick dies, but I hope that only he dies in the movie. Some knows if it will also die in the series of television?
They have said that the movie is Canon so yes he is now dead. we should change the page to reflect this i reckon
he's baaaaaack! --70.137.170.120 (talk) 10:56, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
James L. Brooks gives hope!

I've just finished watching "Homer's Triple Bypass" and I noticed that Nick has two "M"s in his moustache. I went and found an earlier appearance, and it looked like he has "N" and "M" in that show. Does this mean anything, the way the MG on Homer's noggin does, or is this just a coincidence? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.167.136.139 (talk) 07:36, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Simpsons creators have said repeatedly that Dr. Nick is supposed to be Eastern European.

Has anyone else heard that Dr Nick was inspired in part by Elvis' doctor, George C. Nichopoulos? I can't remember where I read this, but there is an indirect reference to it on Nichopoulos' wikipedia article. It would make sense - Dr Nick is possibly Eastern European, and Nichopoulos was Greek, plus Nichopoulos was notorious for overprescribing prescription drugs to Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, and others. Would anybody be able to confirm the link? BTW Nichopoulos was commonly known as Dr Nick. Melaena (talk) 23:13, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
Although it might be good to refrence the article compairing Dr. Hibbart and Dr. Nick, that article appears to be satirically written, which is not reflected in this page's usage of it.

10 days after this article passed an AfD, a merge was proposed. After a single comment the proposer closed the discussion as merge. I suggest it should be relisted to garner broader consensus. Otherwise it is undermining the AfD which was closed with a consensus to Keep. Cheers, Polyamorph (talk) 15:06, 16 February 2020 (UTC)
