dr1Aug 18, (THAINDIAN NEWS) The famous celebrity plastic surgeon, Dr. Frank Ryan died last Monday. The California Highway Patrol spokesman confirmed the news saying that the doctor died in a car crash off the coastal cliff when his Jeep descended steeply off a Malibu highway into the ocean. Dr. Frank Ryan is survived by his mother Mary Kate Ryan, and by many cousins, aunts and uncles.

Dr. Frank Ryan captured limelight when he performed multiple surgeries on reality TV star Heidi Montag. His celebrity clients include musician Vince Neil, actor Lorenzo Lamas, reality stars Lisa Gastineau and Adrianne Curry and many other models and pageant winners. The doctor in the homepage of his social networking site posted a message minutes before his death where he wrote that his Jeep “veered” to the right and ran off the roadway. The officer Steven Raid said that the Jeep overturned down a rocky embankment towards the ocean and eventually came to rest on its roof. The lifeguards got the surgeon out of the vehicle, placed him on a backboard and started their medical work. The doctors, however, pronounced him dead right at the scene.

Reality TV actress Heidi Montag expressed her condolence at the death of the doctor saying she is “devastated” to hear the news. “The Hills” star wrote that Dr. Frank Ryan like an “angel” changed her life and he was the most brilliant and “talented” surgeon ever existed. Model and reality star Janice Dickinson’s publicist Brad Taylor said that the starlet was deeply “anguished” after hearing the news. In the fond memory of the doctor, a candlelight vigil was held on Tuesday at Malibu’s Zuma Beach.
