The Death Of Kanye West’s Mom, Donda West, Sparks New Law
The death of Kanye West’s mother, Dr. Donda West, has encouraged physicians and lawmakers to call for greater protections for patients undergoing cosmetic surgery, according to reports.
In the U.S., such surgeries are increasingly done outside hospital settings in outpatient clinics, where a doctor can avoid rigorous review.
And, with the number of cosmetic procedures overall on the increase, it’s almost a matter of public health that something be done.
In 2007, there were 11.7 million cosmetic procedures performed in the United States, a 59% increase over 2000.
The new law would require doctors to perform complete physical of patients before beginning any operation.
And why was this not a law before???
