Donda's Surgeon -- I'm the Victim of "Sleaze"

Plastic surgeon Dr. Jan Adams has told TMZ that he was the doctor who performed cosmetic surgery on Kanye West's mother Donda before she died.

Dr. Adams told TMZ her death, which followed a tummy tuck and breast reduction, was unforeseen and could have been caused by a heart attack, pulmonary embolism, or massive vomiting.

Dr. Adams tells us West consulted with him over a period of four months. He says she changed her mind numerous times, sometimes greenlighting the surgery and sometimes halting it.

As for the TMZ report that Beverly Hills doctor Andre Aboolian refused to conduct the surgery because of a medical condition that West had, Dr. Adams said of Dr. Aboolian, "He is sleazy and manipulating the truth to elevate his own importance."

Dr. Adams says he did nothing wrong.

1. My heart goes out to Kanye, this is such a senseless death, may she rest in peace. Her death shows that there are risks to plastic surgery, it can happen to anyone, you just never know how your body will react. My prayers are with Kanye and his family.

7. Listen:

There is no privacy law regarding a person who has recently passed. Dead people secrets are always up for grabs. And if she DID pass away due to an allergic reaction as some people are stating

Then basically her doctor was crap. He didn't test her for allergies and send her for consultations with specialists regarding those possible scenarios, like DYING due to complications FOLLOWING surgery

please.

8. I can't believe that people are giving out all the personal info about Kanye's mothers death. Granted he's not my favorite artist, I know that he was extremely close to his mother and I'm all too sure he's devastated about her death. Give him a break TMZ!!! This is a DEATH, not freakin Britney Spears!!! Stick to the celeb TRASH and leave the real life heartbreak and devastation alone!!

13. Maybe her untimely death will wake up America and remind them of the risks in ANY surgery.

14. #9, my apologies. A minute ago there was a VERY nasty post, so this is NOT intended to YOUR post!! Guess it got deleted, rightly so. What an awful thing to say. Again, Leavethemourningalone, not meant for you :)

15. this couldve happened to anyone. It has happened to anyone...they just dont have the benefit of having it printed on the front of tabloids. every surgery no matter how minor or major comes with possible negative consequences. it's a very sad thing. In San Francisco we just lost a beloved newscaster Pete Wilson due to unforeseen complications in a surgery..........whether it's cosmetic or health related, these things are possible.
