Gwen Korovin, is the doctor who began a biopsy on Joan Rivers‘ vocal cords that is thought to have killed the comedian. She even snapped a selfie while she was under anesthesia.
Korovin, 55, performed an unplanned procedure directly before Rivers suffered cardiac arrest last month.
Korovin is the same doctor who a clinic staff member told investigators snapped a selfie in the procedure room while Rivers was under anesthesia on August 29, the source said.
Rivers, 81, died a week after suffering cardiac arrest during an appointment at Manhattan’s Yorkville Endoscopy clinic. Rivers’ throat doctor is well known for helping an impressive list of celebrities with voice trouble. The list of famous patients who have sung her praises include actors Hugh Jackman and Nathan Lane and singers Celine Dion, Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande. source
The walls of Dr. Korovin’s Manhattan medical office are covered with autograph photos, including from operatic tenor Luciano Pavarotti, Broadway star Barbara Cook and actress-singer Julie Andrews.
