Dr. Jan Adams Speaks on Larry King About Kanye West's Mother's Death
By clicking on the link above you can watch the video. One of the many interesting things about this video is the doctor speaks about himself in the third person essentially removing himself from the story. I never understand when someone speaks about themselves and does not use I or me....very interesting. The one point that is reality that Dr. Jan makes is that not all plastic surgeons are confident cosmetic surgeons. Unfortunately the public is told that you should only seek a board certified plastic surgeon for cosmetic surgery. This statement is made by the governing body of the plastic surgeons. As Dr. Jan points out just because you trained in a plastic surgery residency does not mean that you have ever performed Cosmetic procedures like face lifts. The patients who came to plastic surgeons do not want their faces and bodies trained upon by residents and fellows. There are excellent cosmetic surgeons who are plastic surgeons but there are as many, if not more, excellent surgeons who are Ocular plastic surgeons, ENT- facial, Dermatologic surgeons as well. Board certification in any of these specialties is very important but not the only factor. Please read my earlier blog for more relevant questions.

The media video has been removed, but this is a very serious situation. If you are told not to have something done for medical purposes, please listen. Don't just go to the next person who will do the work. She was a very well educated woman, she should have never have had that surgery. Is it that we can be so consumed with our appearance that rational thinking gets tossed out? Very sad, but this is what can happen with any surgery.
