Dr. 90210 To The Rescue On Newark-Bound Flight

Pretend for a moment that you fall suddenly ill on a coast-to-coast flight, so ill that the flight crew asks over the PA system for any medical personnel to come and help. A doctor is located, and just when you being to hope that everything will be okay, the man pictured above shows up—a reality show plastic surgeon. Sure, Dr. Robert Rey is trained in medicine, but you're not exactly having a breast lift mid-flight.

Dr. Rey, the star of E! Television's hit show "Dr. 90210," was on a flight to Newark on Sunday, when a young girl's troubling sickly appearance necessitated action. After checking out her vitals and symptoms, Dr. Rey feared that this was a case of the dreaded Swine Flu, made even more trying for the fact that the girl was switching planes in Newark to continue on to Scandinavia.

After giving the girl some water and sugar, Dr. Rey could do all he could. He didn't alert airport employees nor did he save the girl's health, but he did reemerge in the news for a little bit, a rush he probably hasn't experienced since he restrained an elderly man trying to rush the cockpit on a flight several years ago. Rey to the Rescue!
