Heidi Montag's Plastic Surgeon Killed in Car Crash

Heidi Montag's Plastic Surgeon Killed in Car Crash

Dr. Frank Ryan – the Beverly Hills plastic surgeon most famous for Heidi Montag‘s new look — died in a car crash on Monday afternoon.

According to TMZ, he was killed after his jeep went over the side of the Pacific Coast Highway at 4:33 p.m. on August 16.

Late last year, Dr. Ryan performed TEN plastic surgery procedures on Heidi in one day.

You can read Dr. Ryan‘s tweets minutes before the crash @DrFrankRyan. Creepy!

UPDATE: Heidi has updated her Twitter: “I am devastated to hear the news of Dr. Frank Ryan‘s death. He was the most amazing person I have ever known. He was an angel and changed my life and the lives of everyone he met. He was the most brilliant talented surgeon who will ever exist. Dr. Frank Ryan changed the world.”

Very sorry, as I’m sure his family and friends are devastated. Question: Was he tweeting while driving?

I don’t want to be disrespectful, but look at this poor Heidi who was so pretty and natural beauty…and there’s maybe some others women that he “changed”….

Do I dare talk about karma ?

PS : I’m sure lot of people won’t like what I just said, I’m not against plastic surgery, but here it’s beyond the plastic surgery, the girl has psychologic issues…
Money and advertising was apparently more important that her issues….

WAS HE TWEETING/TEXTING WHILE DRIVING? How dumb was doing that on the PCH! Guess he also didn’t watch Oprah about the dangers of not giving driving your full attention when you’re in the car. Maybe he was also texting while working of Heidi? That could explain the 10 surgeries in one day. He forgot to pay attention and thought he was working on several different women. Oh well, RIP.

From what I’ve read, he had been tweeting “minutes before.” He might have been distracted because of the tweets, and went over the cliff. California has already outlawed talking on a hand-held phone while driving, so why isn’t tweeting when driving outlawed? Better to be safe than dead!

Condolences to his family.

@peete:

Did you ever heard about ethic ?

There’s ethic, especially, in plastic surgery.

Change a nose, or some boobs, is different than THAT.

You can do your job without tweeting, and get some advertise from a woman who want fame at any price, even if she’s just PERFECT.

@MllleF, it was HER decision to change her look. and for me she doesn’t seems so sad with the loss of her “natural beauty”.
so don’t blame him for making his job.

My condolences to his family and friends

You’re all morons. Stop affiliating the man’s death with Heidi Montag. I just don’t get how people can start talking crap after an article like this.

Such a shame to lose an individual like this.

so sad and almost eerie that we get to see (w the pic he posted) what he had no idea was going to be his last moments alive, on earth. Looking at that view he had no idea he was going to die in about half an hour. wow, it really just puts a weird perspective on life. that we just have no idea. Was his dog in the accident? :(

rest in peace

@DL:

Ethic, Ethic, Ethic…

You defend that kind of “job” but america is full of people who sues all kind of doctors, for good or bad reasons.

Your argument is stupid, if someone suicidal ask to someone else to kill him, with a contract and money, and everything, so there’s no problem !

After all it was the decision of the suicide person.

Was he tweeting while driving? I sure hope not-he could have killed someone besides himself!

Heidi is probably very sad right now, but we won’t be able to see her facial expressions, I don’t really think she could do that anymore, oh yeah this is very saddddd rip.

This man did TEN procedures on Heidi at one time! She was beautiful to begin with and clearly to everyone, she has major insecurities and issues. He should have refused to do all that stuff and referred her to a good therapist. That is what an ethical doctor does. Instead, he took advantage of a weak,vulnerable person who is crying out for help with all of her antics. While I feel badly for him and his family and no one deserves to die in their prime, this man made himself infamous by his own questionable choices. It’s inevitable that dead or alive, people will talk about what he did to that poor girl and likely countless other people. It’s his resposnibility, in life and in death.

@MilleF is right:

Thank you !

Or merci in my language…;)

No one is saying that it’s ok if he’s dead, but what he did was really bad, he was running after something that maybe killed him.
