Doctor Who Performed Surgery on Kanye West’s Mom Has DUI History

Dr. Jan Adams charged with drunk driving twice.

Dr. Jan Adams, the doctor who performed cosmetic surgery on Kanye West’s mother, has a history of drunk driving arrests. Earlier in the year, the Medical Board of California filed for revocation or suspension of his license over his ‘multiple’ DUI cases.

An ex-girlfriend said Adams has “an unfortunate drinking problem” and a 'Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' personality when intoxicated. Adams entered a ‘no contest’ plea to 2003 DUI arrest and he was found guilty in 2006 for driving with a blood-alcohol content above the legal limit.

Dr. Adams performed a breast reduction and tummy tuck on Kanye West’s mom, Donda, last weekend. Even though the surgery reportedly lasted twice as long as normal, Donda was sent home without post-op supervision and she died. An autopsy was performed though the results will not be finalized for 6-8 weeks. Adams insists that he did nothing wrong. Another plastic surgeon refused to perform surgery on Donda, citing a preexisting condition that could cause a heart attack. In 2001 Adams settled two malpractice suits and he has several other cases pending.

Adams hosted Discovery Channel’s “Plastic Surgery: Before and After” and was co-host of ABC’s “The Other Half.”
