Anna Methadone Doc -- That's Entertainment

The doctor who prescribed methadone to a very pregnant Anna Nicole Smith to a phony name and had it shipped to the Bahamas -- has an interesting medical practice.

TMZ broke the story that Dr. Sandeep Kapoor, who practices in Los Angeles, wrote a prescription for methadone on August 25, 13 days before Anna Nicole gave birth.

TMZ searched the internet and found a description of Dr. Kapoor's practice in an advertisement for someone who has worked "in an outpatient based settling." In the description of his practice, Dr. Kapoor lists "Entertainment Medicine."


Ad from Kapoor
TMZ contacted St. John's Hospital in Santa Monica which caters to celebrities, and a spokesman there said he had never heard of "Entertainment Medicine."

61. This is amazing. ANS gets all kinds of painkillers and if I need one extra sleeping pilll, I cannot get one. The drugstore looks at me like I am a drug addict.

62. This comment is in response the # 11's comment regarding Anna Nicole Smith. I just want to point out that no one really knows what was going on, but you cannot say that "ANS did not have a severe chronic pain indication". Cancer is NOT the only thing that can cause horrible, chronic pain! Many diseases and conditions are "invisible" conditions...........which means that the person appears perfectly normal. To name just a very few of these: MS, Fibromyalgia, Ankylosing Spondilitis, Lupus, Myofascial Pain Syndrome........I could go on and on!
While it did appear that Anna was under the influence at times, can we please not judge her on the things that we have NO way of knowing anything about, such as her level of pain?? Aside from her physical pain, I'm sure that she also had much emotional pain, which was probably to blame for a lot of her actions. May she rest in peace!

63. Argh...

64. Is this Kapoor a Doctor or a Physicians Assistant? Is it possible she had AIDS? Kapoor lists "national and international clinical pharmacuetical trials" did he figure Howard, who by the way is in the picture to the side with Kapoor, needed to do a TRIAL??? Are there anymore shipments to the Bahamas before this? Smells of Howard K. Stern to me but then I'm not a Doctor, a Pharmacist or a Lawyer nor possibly a future criminal juror in the death of Anna Nicole Smith. My opinion? Go Larry!

65. In my opinion Entertainment Medicine means medical care for people in the Entertainment business, just as Sports Medicine means the care of people in Sports.

67. HKS - behind bars .........................its as simple as that.

Anna with Danny (where I can visit them too - along with all her fans.)

I can almost swear of Anna could talk she would be telling the world what an evil man HKS was and sadly still is!! (without any drugs of course!)

Rest in peace - alongside Danny.........wherever it might be.

TMZ keep up the good work

68. This is to 28 and all the other HKS supporters. HE IS AN ENABLERand he is the reason she is dead! ANS kept him around to procure her drugs for her and to keep her high. He absolutely controlled her life with drugs and he should be arrested for his role in her death! This man had one client ONLY and he abetted her death, if not caused it outright. He has no income, the two of them never paid for anything...just used and abused other people. Do you know he got one million dollars plus expenses from The Insider since ANS died? And that doesn't count what The Insider had been paying her all these months for her story. He wrote up all her legal papers to benefit himself, a nothing loser! Trust me, he will be found out and he is such a coward he'll either flee to some unknown place or kill himself. Get that little girl away from him before she's dead, too, especially since he made sure that he's in control of all her money. And her will is incredible. I hope it gets thrown out!

69. According to Howard's sister just 2 hours before Anna died she was running a 105 fever and he had her put in a bathtub full of ice to bring the fever down. Why didn't he take her to the hospital--because Stern said it would have brought about bad publicity. Duh--like letting her die in the hotel room until Stern gave his permission to call 911 was good publicity?? Only 3 people were present in Anna's hospital room when Danny died and now Stern the lover/lawyer is the executor of a will in which Dannielynn is not even mentioned.. Let Vergie bring them all back to Texas--maybe Dannielynn has a chance to survive this way. Howard Stern's track record of care giving leaves something to be desired.

70. Again, anyone will do anything for a buck, why should doctor's be different. He knew what he was doing, but hark is that green I hear calling....$$$$$ cha ching....and life goes on. Are we really so surprised to read all this or hear it? This life style has been around for ever...Though Anna sure did top the cake...lol everything in her life seems to be so complicated and still is more so in her death...the girl was a mess, and passed it on., sort of like STD's....lol poor thing may she rest in peace and that innocent daughter be kept away from evil money hungry people, I hope the cycle is broken..........salvadda

71. GOD will PREVAIL.................................

You are DONE howard k stern

72. I hope HKS gets to sit and speak with scum bag Scott Peterson when the appropriate authorities get enough balls to see this entire case for what it really is...........maybe he (HKS) & SP can compare notes......as for the FNM in the Bahamas.............do you really think we (US citizens) are as STUPID as your papers report.........let me reassure U........."WE GOT YO DIGITS"

As for G Ben Thompson & family: We love you and know that you are real concerned folks and please know our thoughts and prayers are with you. Don't stop until HKS is out of YOUR Horizions home......kick his ass out now.

Take Daniel and Anna home to Texas...........................Family Matters NOT HKS

73. Does it escape everyone's attention that ANS buried Daniel there? Why would anyone support the thought of exhuming him and burying him and ANS in Texas? ANS left there and NEVER looked back for a reason. We may never know exactly what the reason was or why, but that is what she did. Do you honestly think that that indicates that she would WANT to be buried there...near a "mother" she wanted nothing to do with? I DON'T THINK SO!!!!!! Let Daniel rest in peace.....bury ANS next to him & let her finally rest in peace also....get Danielynn away from ALL the people who are vying for her custody because NONE of them truely give a damn about her!!!!!!!

74. The doctor, should have to produce documentation that he had examined Ms. Smith in his office during her pregancy for closer monitoring of patient and fetus, before issuing drugs of that nature, and having them shipped to another country, further more and most importantly he should also have to produce information contained in her medical record indicating she needed those drugs for specific reasons to the drug task force adminitration or any other authority governing physicians.

75. Without meaning ANY disrespect or disgust, is it possible ( with all the sperm freezing and negotiating) that anna could have carried ( by invetro fertilization) Daniels child? Could that be why Stern is so quick to produce Annas will and so slow at produceing his own DNA sample? He KNEW what her will left to whom and to whom it would be going to. Also Marshall left Danny a great deal of money, where is it now? The childs name indicates it was named "after" Danny. Can Dannys DNA be tested now? iI this were to become a real scenerio, it would explain ALOT of the actions,secrets and mysteries. It has been indicated by more than one,and needs researched. Again i intend absolutely NO disrespect and wish only for Anna and Danny to rest in peace, the baby to be well cared for and not be traumatized by those that lived off her mother for so long
