my beef is with oprah… shes introducing the world to a bunch of QUACKS!!! “dr.phil” “dr.adams”
i could careless if this douche is black, white red or purple…. if he was under the influence while he was at work yes he should be locked away.. but if these dui charges are happening when hes off the clock, thats personal life..belive it or not, some ppl can seperate those lives. ms.west, could very well have had a heart attack or an allergic reaction…now people im not defending the good doctor, at all!!! a life was lost, that can never be replaced.. a family lost their mother, sister, aunt, friend,compainion,the rock. im deeply sorry for the west family loss, but all sides should be seen before fingers are pointed. its hard at times but needs to be done… the family may not be able to do it, thats why the public should be speakin up

Hello Ben,

You seem to mostly focus on the DUI incidents in your defense of Dr. Adams, which I agree should not preclude him from practicing medicine. And I am not even saying that the lawsuits should either without careful investigation. My issue is that the medical profession/board has a bad track record about investigating these types of incidents and many bad doctors that should be put out of practice are not. Agreeing or disagreeing with my opinion is fine. But how can you say this website is a racist publication? Have you ever been to this site before and read a sampling of the articles? Or is it simply because Dr. Adams is black? Do you really think my article would have been written any differently if Dr. Adams had been white? No way!!!!

Let me first say that this is a terrible turn of events, where a life has been lost, my heart goes out to the West family.

I just want to understand what one conviction of a DUI & another convection of a lesser charge .08, (this is accurate per the records, not multiple DUI’s as you have been reporting, do your homework) has to do with his ability to do his job. Was he drinking while doing surgery?

This person has been doing surgeries for over 20 yrs 6000 plus done; I would think if any of us who has done anything 6000 times, there would be a few unhappy customers.

Doctors are the most sued professional group there is, let’s pull all the medical lawsuits in Beverly Hills, and post them on your site.

I have been in social settings where Judges, lawyers as well as Doctors have had drinks and drove home, is it right. No, that is why he was arrested and punished, should his lively hood be taken for something that has nothing to do with what he does as a surgeon?

I think not, if that is the case, lets not allow Senator Kennedy to continue being a senator (didn’t he drive off a bridge, after having too much to drink? Leaving a woman to die?) Or let’s take Robert Downy Jr.’s ability to act after repeated run inns with the law, or maybe we should demand Senator Craig step down, he did enter a plea in a Gay Sex Sting didn’t he? Or Mel Gibson, Kiefer Sutherland 3 times DUI, Lakers Owner Jerry Buss, and the list goes on, why is the media trying to go after this guy? Makes you think about how Bill Belichick is still coaching after being caught doing something directly concerning football (CHEATING IN FOOT BALL) and players are suspended and even band from the game for things that have nothing to do what football, what am I thinking those other guys are white!

Your publication is nothing more than a racist rag!
