Wait what, what did Phlox do?
He refused to cure a developing species of aliens essentially suffering from being on the bad end of natural selection, thereby establishing the ethical precedent that would eventually lead to the prime directive. In other words, he's a badass.
He failed to give a cure to a genetic error to the Valakians so the Menks could eventually stop being slaves.
