Rule Question using From name

I get these annoying spam emails for prescription
drugs.  They are always From: "Doctor" with the
actual email address being different each time.

ex. Doctor [betacomp@griggsgroup.com]

There's no point in adding these emails to my Junk Senders
list because the address changes everytime.  The one thing they
all have in common though, is the From: name - Doctor.

So, how do I tell Outlook to delete all emails from "Doctor" ?
I manually added, to my junk senders list, just the word - Doctor, but it
does not delete these emails.  If I try to use one of the rules
templates, it wants an email address.

How do I do this?

Rules are a lousy way to handle junkmail. Look into SpamBayes (free - google
it) or other software for this.
