Anna's Doc Scrutinized by CA Med Board

Dr. Sandeep Kapoor is the subject of an inquiry by the Medical Board of California, which wants to know more about physician misconduct allegations in the treatment of the late Anna Nicole Smith.

Spokesperson Candis Cohen says that the board is looking into "possible misconduct" by Dr. Kapoor, after TMZ reported his prescribing of methadone to an alias used by Anna Nicole. Cohen added that the board was looking into the legality of prescribing drugs to someone who is using an alias.

31. Is this the doctor that sent Anna the "Costco vat" of methodone that was in her fridge? For gods sake the medical board better get a better hold of "controlled substance" prescription transactions. Methodone is a triplicat prescription and the feds should have monitored Kapoor's actions. His license should be revoked. A bell should have gone off in the pharmacist's head "why the hell is a vat of methodone going to a private house in the Bahamas?" before dispensing/sending the stuff. I'm appauled at this entire Anna fiasco. RIP Anna.

34. This is a media circus!! Anna Nicole is dead. For God's sake get on with the paternity tests. Find out who is the father of that poor baby.Take her home and love her. Let Anna be laid to rest. Get it over with. I.m sick of seeing nothing but this garbage in the news. People are more concerned about Anna than those dying in Iraq!! Rather ironic isn't it?? Now they've painted her as Mother Theresa!! Get over her. She certainly was no Marilyn Monroe. Let her go!!

41. Is it just me or does NO ONE involved with Anna Nicole know the difference between professional & personal conduct? Her dr. is kissing all over her at parties & such, her lawyer claims to be the babydaddy, pics of the immigration minister is in bed with her, her bodyguard is claiming to be the babydaddy & even Birkhead was a photographer of hers! The one I find least offensive in his conduct is Birkhead...he was just a photographer to her not someone who had dealings with her legal, medical issues or entrusted with her safety.

Was she just that seductive that no one could say, "No. We need to keep this professional & above board." Looks like ANS surrounded herself with "men" who could only think with their pants! Pretty damn freakin' pathetic!

I honestly hope that Danielynn's paternity is soon determined! I think that HKS is a sleezy weasel who couldn't cry to save his own a$$! Least he could have done was stick himself with a pin to make it even slightly convincing! He's an even crappier actor than Anna was!!!! He makes me want to barf!

P.S. Larry Birkhead is the father. Always has been, always will be. Get over it, Howard! Your gravytrain is leaving the station SOON!!!

42. Having gone through the "hand-cuff drug" (Methadone) addriction myself, finding the amount being prescribed by this "shop around" doctor is absolutely ridiculous and apparently fatal. Regardless of how or why, it should not even be a damn question she should be layed to rest with her son, Daniel in the Bahamas as she requested. Unfortunately that too is what Howard K. Stern, who I don't trust trust and is comletely shifty, she should be layed to rest as requested by herself. Apparently the next place would be next to Marilyn Monroe where Hugh Hefner bought a plot, and was said to give it to Anna. But as you could imagine her son meant a lot more to her than she ever could, idol or not. For her mother to come out of the wood works after all thes years, and how Anna reacted toward her days before her passing...your kidding right have her buried in Tx how much more pain can you put on your own daughter, you didn't do the greatest of jobs and now that a million daughter baby is floating around "Grandma Dearest" is all arms. Precious...


Hoping she can can finally rest her head comfortably.

44. Good for TMZ for their GREAT investigative reporting here, and spurring the California medical authorities to check this out! I note on the AMA physician directory that he is a non-member, with the self-described specialty of Geriatric Medicine.

45. There is no drug that is absolutely safe during pregnancy. Although methadone has been taken during pregnancy and women have been able to breast-feed successfully, the potential risks of the use of methadone in pregnancy are not completely known. At any time if you suspect you are pregnant, you must inform the physician. Early pre-natal care, keeping your dose stable, and avoiding all other drugs are important procedures to follow to enhance your chances of delivering a normal, healthy baby. Withdrawing from methadone during pregnancy is NOT recommended. You must provide documentation of your pre-natal care and authorize the staff physician to communicate with your obstetric physician. Methadone maintenance treatment is recommended standard care for opioid dependent women who become pregnant.
