Cause of Death
Dr. Payman Simoni the Beverly Hills plastic surgeon who died from COVID-19 — performed the same procedure that led to his death weeks before … for a reality show.
“The shock is that he was so perfectly healthy,” said family friend Katy Amiri-Younesi.
“He’s a doctor, I called him when I had COVID. He was instructing me what to do.”
Simoni’s longtime friend tells us the doctor got a test on December 6 after a patient he had seen called to say they were positive. The father of two did test positive. His friends tell us for about a week, he was perfectly fine, but then started having shortness of breath. He was eventually put on a ventilator at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he quickly deteriorated.
“Yes, he was wearing a mask at all times,” Amiri-Younesi said. “He was a physician. And he took all the protocols.”
Patrik tells us he was instructed to get a COVID test before surgery, and he tested negative. The woman who allegedly infected Dr. Simoni, however, was not tested beforehand and only did a temperature check and COVID questionnaire at the practice.
Remember, Dr. Simoni died Friday after being hospitalized with COVID-19 … and family sources told us he contracted the virus after performing a lip injection on a maskless patient who coughed on him and tested positive for COVID days later.
