Was Anna Nicole Smith prescribed methadone while she was pregnant with her baby Dannielynn Hope? That accusation has been bandied about and entertainment news show Access Hollywood is reporting the man claiming to be Anna Nicole Smith's primary care physician, Dr. Sandeep Kapoor found himself in hot water yesterday when it was revealed he allegedly had prescribed a pregnant Smith methadone.

The report cites documents obtained by TMZ.com, that revealed that Dr. Kapoor wrote a methadone prescription for the star under the false name of "Michelle Chase." The prescription however was mailed to Anna under her real name Vickie Marshall in the Bahamas. Just days ago however, Dr. Kapoor claimed in an interview with Access Hollywood that Anna was not on drugs while she was pregnant with five-month-old Dannielynn.

So where is the doctor? According to Access, since news broke about the methadone prescription Dr. Kapoor has been unavailable for comment. He cancelled an interview with Access and was captured with his head covered while ducking in to a van in Los Angeles yesterday. His Southern California practice offices had the curtains drawn and the doors locked as well.
TMZ does note that in an interview with People Magazine out this week, Dr. Kapoor -- the doc described in the article as "Anna's personal physician" -- says that the former Playmate took "no dangerous prescription drugs during her pregnancy."
Cue the doc: Like Access Hollywood, TMZ tried to reach Dr. Kapoor for a statement, but he quickly said "no comment" and hung up the phone.
