Celebrity Justice
Dr. Adams Sued for Malpractice

TMZ has obtained a lawsuit, filed in Orange County Superior Court, claiming medical malpractice against Dr. Jan Adams.

Terrie Cage claims on June 27, 2007, Dr. Adams and another doctor "negligently and carelessly examined, diagnosed, cared for, treated and performed surgery upon plaintiff, failing to follow the standard care ..." As a result, Cage alleges she was "rendered sick, sore, lame and disabled."

A source tells TMZ Cage went in for breast augmentation, a tummy tuck and lipo.

2. What a shame that Dr. West didn't know this beforehand. May she rest in peace, and may her family find some comfort in their grief.

10. It's their fault for not checking out this doctor. I have no sympathy for morons.

11. Is sounds like this doctor has a bad track record. Dr. West should have consulted a highly recomemded surgeon for her procedures, especially when it comes to something as serious as liposuction, you don't want any back alley surgeon doing major surgery on you.

LOVE YOU KANYA!! STAY STRONG, TRY AND KEEP YOUR HEAD UP. I KNOW ITS HARD RIGHT NOW.

You will be kept in my prayers.

13. GOOD! Someone needs to be regulating the obviously dangerous surgeries that some of these surgeons perform because they are money hungry! To whatever judge hears this case: MAKE AN EXAMPLE OUT OF THIS GUY!

14. I'm sorry for the loss of his mother but honestly anyone considering any surgical procedure should do research about the doctors. Any of this information regarding lawsuits is accessable by the public. Ok the doctor may not have disclosed but legally he is not obligated to do. The patient has to assume some responsiblity. I know I wouldn't let anyone cut me open without my researching them.
