As we all know by now, Donda West, Kanye West's mother, has died. Until now, facts about the procedure has not been released. Dr. Jan Adams had performed a tummy tuck and breast reduction on West. After the procedure was done, West was adamant about going back to her home and Adams released her without having her sign a patient refusal form.
According to "Access Hollywood", Adams had been referred by Oprah Winfrey. Oprah denies referring Adams to West but he has made a guest appearance on her show. He also had his own show on Discovery Health, "Plastic Surgery: Before and After", a line of skin care products, and is the author of two books on plastic surgery.
Currently, there are three open cases against Adams, one being a civil case by an Orange County woman who claims that he botched a surgery to remove excess skin and reshape her abdomen and chest.
Adams was convicted on DUI charges in 2006 and plead no contest to a DUI charge in 2003. The Medical Board of California is still trying to determine whether his license should be suspended or revoked due to the two alcohol related cases that he's had in the past 5 years.
West's autopsy was performed, but the results were inconclusive until the test results come back in 6-8 weeks. There has not been any announcements for funeral arrangements but it has been reported that she may be laid to rest in her hometown, Oklahoma City.
(My condolences to Kanye West and his family. This just proves that people should be more careful with the doctors they choose to perform surgery on them. Do your research people, don't think that just because a person was on television, he or she is legit.)
