Dr. Arnie Klein's attorney is speaking to ET and addressing media reports about his reported connection to Michael Jackson.
Dr. Klein's lawyer, Richard L. Charnley, tells ET, "Dr. Klein is aware of media reports connecting him to Michael Jackson. Because of patient confidentiality Dr Klein will make no statement on any reports or allegations. Out of respect for his patients and adherence to federal HIPAA regulations, Dr. Klein asks that the media not contact his patients nor interfere with their medical treatments. Like millions of Michael's fans around the world, Dr. Klein is saddened by Michael's death and extends his condolences to Michael's family."
Dr. Klein is a Beverly Hills dermatologist and Debbie Rowe -- former wife to Michael and mother to Prince Michael and Paris -- was a nurse at his practice in the 1990's.
