Melissa Rivers will sue Dr. Lawrence Cohen and Dr Gwen Korovin for the death of her mother, Joan Rivers. Melissa Rivers is certain to sue Yorkville Endoscopy after getting some disturbing details about what really happened to her mother. Rivers is not filing the lawsuit for the money, she just wants to prevent another death.
According to a close source to Melissa Rivers, she has decided to sue the New York facility and the staff members present during the routine medical procedure that ended her mother Joan Rivers’ life.
In an interview with Radar Online, the insider explained that Miss Rivers is absolutely certain that she will sue, not for the money, but because she wants to make sure another patient does not die at the clinic. The source said:
“She won’t be doing it for the money.She wants to make sure this doesn’t happen to anyone else.”
The person claimed, the television personality spoke to several staff members of Yorkville Endoscopy, who dropped a bombshell about Dr. Lawrence Cohen and the female ear, nose and throat doctor, who are being blamed for Joan Rivers’ death.
It appears that Dr. Lawrence Cohen invited an unauthorized person, which was later revealed to be Dr Gwen Korovin to observe the procedure.
After the gastroenterologist had performed the endoscopy, it is reported that Dr Gwen Korovin stepped in to take a selfie with Joan Rivers while under anesthesia.
Korovin who was Joan Rivers’ personal ENT specialist began a biopsy without the patient’s consent. During the unauthorized biopsy, oxygen flow was cut from River’s lungs, which led to a cardiac arrest.
The controversial comedienne was taken to Mount Sinai where she was removed from life support on September 4 after being in a coma for several days.
But according to the anonymous source, there is something more shocking that Dr Gwen Korovin did that has Melissa Rivers preparing to sue. The source shared:
“It was something related to Joan’s personal ear, nose and throat doctor and it wasn’t about the unplanned biopsy she did.Melissa will await the outcome of the official medical investigation and then absolutely file the lawsuits.”
After news broke that Melissa Rivers plans to sue those involved in her mom’s death, Korovin issued a statement saying that she will not talk about the matter.
According to some of her family members, she plans to clear her name because she knows that she has not done anything wrong. Korovin is said to be cooperating with investigators on the case.
Yorkville Endoscopy said in a statement that Dr. Cohen has been released from his post at the clinic. Many agree that Melissa Rivers should sue because this a clear case of medical malpractice.
Others say she is dragging the doctors to court, just trying to get money. What say you?
