We now have a name and a face to attach to the surgeon who performed the tummy tuck and breast reduction that would lead to Donda West's death: It was Beverly Hills cosmetic surgeon Dr. Jan Adams, whose website says, "My work has never simply been about giving someone a new look. It's about providing an individual with a new path to self-discovery and self-esteem." Apparently it's also about getting as much TV coverage as possible, as he's made "countless appearances" on "Oprah and Entertainment Tonight, CNN, E!, NBC, ABC and the Discovery Networks," in addition to being one of the four panelists on The Other Half, aka Dick Clark's The View with Prostates. TMZ has been all over this guy today, turning up a long list of DUIs, malpractice suits, claims of botched boob jobs and that he lied about his credentials, and license suspension proceedings. They also report that Donda's surgery lasted 8 hours, or twice as long as usual for her procedure.

You know something is wrong when you make Dr. 90210 look professional in comparison.

Remember when plastic surgeons did stuff like fix deformed babies and repair damage to burn victims?
I can't see that as ever factoring into this douche bag's career choice.

@manfacedboy:

I doubt he pronounces it correctly ("Yon"). Although, if you want discordant names, try South America, where you can have Asian guys named Jorges and native headhunters named Hugo.

I believe the name "Jan" is now pronounced "Mud".
