Actors often face intense scrutiny on social media regarding their appearances and fashion choices. Recently, Dr. Raj Kanodia, a renowned plastic surgeon, found himself at the center of a Reddit controversy for allegedly violating HIPAA rules. The uproar began when Dr. Kanodia liked a post claiming he performed Janhvi Kapoor’s rhinoplasty. This incident gained traction due to Khloe Kardashian’s previous admission that Dr. Kanodia had performed her rhinoplasty as well.
The Reddit post that sparked the debate was captioned, “Dr. Raj Kanodia was at the Ambani wedding – Khloe admitted he did her rhinoplasty but he liked a comment confirming he did Janhvi’s – isn’t this a HIPAA violation?”
This question ignited a flurry of responses, with users divided on whether Dr. Kanodia’s action constituted a breach of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). The law typically prohibits healthcare providers from sharing protected information without patient consent.
Netizens Reaction
One user responded, “Ok- I think lawyers here in the US would argue that a like doesn’t necessarily mean a confirmation. However, I have been to a plastic surgery office before to get a quote for myself and we are asked to sign waivers because they can use our before and after pics in their portfolio. I do think the optics of this are poor though.” Another user wrote, “Ehhh I guess they could argue that, but as you said it does look bad on his part. I would never trust a doctor that liked comments like that. Surely people can speculate all they’d like, but it just looks awful especially that it’s his top comment.”
Further complicating the issue, another user noted, “HIPAA does cover non-US citizens that received care in the US and the comment does imply a patient-provider relationship – But if Janhvi signed a consent form for disclosure, this is not a HIPAA violation.” A fan pointed out, “Even with HIPAA, which is a US-specific law, if the patient voluntarily discloses the information, or agrees to it being disclosed, then no violation has occurred. The same principles apply to traditional doctor-patient confidentiality.”
Photos Shared On Social Media
Adding to the intrigue, Dr. Kanodia recently shared photos and reels from the Ambani wedding, captioning them, “Once in a lifetime honor and privilege to be invited to the most memorable ceremony of the century – Anant Ambani and Radhika’s wedding. Adding to the celebration, it was amazing connecting with some of my dear friends all the way across the world, in my home country, India.”
Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant were married on July 12.
