If you haven’t heard, rapper Kanye West‘s mom, Donda, died last Saturday when she stopped breathing while recovering from plastic surgery procedures she had performed the day before.
Her murderer, er, doctor was Jan Adams, a man with a history of questionable behavior. Brought to us by The Hollywood Gossip, here are some of the highlights:
*In a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Lori Ufondu claims that in 1996, she underwent breast augmentation by Dr. Adams. In 2003, she underwent revision surgery by another doctor, who discovered that a surgical sponge was left there, allegedly by Dr. Adams.
*In 2002, Adams’ girlfriend files for a restraining order against him. In the papers, Deborah Pratt stated the “Defendant has an unfortunate drinking problem and unless restrained immediately, will assert the worst side of his ‘Jekyll and Hyde’ personality when he is intoxicated.”
*Teana Lucas claims the doctor agreed to perform liposuction on her upper arms and abdomen. The plaintiff, an aspiring model and actress, alleged as the procedure was about to begin, Dr. Adams “whispered in plaintiff’s ear that he ‘loved’ her, that he was ‘going to marry her.”
On November 24, 2004, the suit alleges Dr. Jan Adams told her she should get dressed and that he was taking her out for dinner. After three glasses of wine, the heavily-medicated plaintiff claims she was “heavily intoxicated.”
That’s when, according to the suit, Dr. Jan Adams took her to his house and had sexual intercourse with her.
Wow, sounds like this Jan Adams dude is a real stand-up guy. He and OJ Simpson should hang out – in jail. And by ‘hang out’ I mean get it in the you-know-where, by the biggest meanest dude on the cell block.

You might recognize “Dr.” Jan Adams from the 2001 TV show, The Other Half.
Yup, that’s Mario Lopez, Danny Bonaduce, and Dick Clark.

Well, well, well….are there not enough warning signs with this DOCTOR? I believe the medical license he got was a “low grade” one. It was only the bare minimum to have a license and “practice” medicine. He didn’t pursue and further medical education to be more knowledgeable about the field of work he was venturing into. Sorry, but that doesn’t say much about his seriousness of his line of work. He may be a member of the California Medical Board, but not of the American Medical Association. I think veterinarians have more medical training than Jan Adams has to perform such surgical procedures as a tummy tuck or b@@@@t augmentation!
I’m curious to know of Donda West’s medical condition that another doctor refused to do surgical procedure on her until she had a medical evaluation release. I’ve a feeling this is only the tip of the ice berg.
Just a thought…I wonder if he was intoxicated during the medical procedure he performed on Ms. West? Or hung over from the night before?
Don’t trust TV doctors!!
My once beautiful wife’s face was completely destroyed by the Evil and unethical Richard Ellenbogen of the show Dr. 90210. When she consulted with reconstructive surgeons around the country, she met numerous others who had also been mutilated and deformed by this reckless, greedy, monster.
What people don’t realize is that any quack can get on TV and on Oprah including Jan Adams, Michael Evan Sachs and Brad Jacobs — all addicts who have finally lost their medical licences. Bad doctors often hire publicists to get them on TV and to get fame b/c that is really the only way for them to get patients.
need legalhelp or advice to what dr adams did to me.
