Fake Doctor Injects Cement and Flat-Tire Sealant Into Patients Buttocks





The cosmetic surgery industry is an important part of healthcare. If you’re interested in pursuing or advancing your career in this field, you’ll want to become increasingly aware of the con-artists who prey on innocent victims.

A classic example is Oneal Ron Morris, 30, who was recently charged with practicing medicine without a license and performing procedures that resulted in serious bodily injury.

Posing as a doctor, Morris filled her patient’s buttocks with cement, mineral oil and flat-tire sealant. Patients were told that their buttocks would become fuller and more attractive. Morris moved from house to house for a year, driving a black Mercedes and evading investigators.

One of Morris’ victims paid $700 for a series of toxic injections in several sites around her bottocks. When the woman suffered intense pain, she was told that more injections would be required “until it all works itself out.” The woman was subsequently admitted to the hospital, suffering from severe abdominal pain, infected buttock sores and flu-like symptoms.

Intitially too embarrassed to tell doctors what she had done, the woman finally admitted to having the bizarre injections, which promoted doctors to alert the Department of Health. She is recovering form her surgery and noted that it's still too painful for her to work. To add insult to injury, she now faces extensive medical bills.

Authorities insist that Morris may have duped other women into taking the strange injections to “enhance their lower figures.”
