KIM Kardashian has been slammed for her “disgusting” treatment of the doctors who operated on her mom Kris Jenner.
In the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kris, 66, underwent hip replacement surgery after struggling with crippling pain.
The episode opened with a makeup-free Kim, 42, in the hospital with Kris’ long-time partner Corey Gamble, 41, before Kris’ surgery.
The SKIMS founder said: “I’m not nervous. My mom is 66 years young.
“It’s always scary going into surgery but she’s in the best hands and I’ve threatened everyone’s lives so.”
While Kim’s comment about “threatening lives” appeared to be a joke, viewers were less than impressed on Reddit.

One wrote: “Disgusting.. very telling of her character.. and Kris Jenner is there being proud that she raised a monster.”
When others pointed out that Kim was “obviously joking”, another critic posted: “I don’t think it’s funny.”
Another added: “Maybe it’s common in America to treat doctors like trash, but in other cultures we respect them.
“I wouldn’t have liked the joke either, as a professional talking to someone about important stuff.”
A third critic simply wrote: “Disrespectful.”
This is not the first time the Kardashians have been accused of treating professionals around them rudely.
Back in April, she faced backlash for her behavior towards her personal chef.
In an episode of The Kardashians, Kendall went to visit Kris at her $20million mansion.
Kris asked if the model, 26, wanted a snack and yelled “chef!” to call him over.
Viewers were horrified at her “entitled” behavior and for not addressing the chef by saying, “please” or “thank you”.
Kris also came under fire for how she spoke to her personal driver.
While sitting in the back of a car with her daughter Khloe, Kris yelled to the driver: “Sir, can I ask you to leave us alone for five minutes?”
Seemingly wanting the driver to raise the partition of the private ride, she continued, “I just wanna do something real quick, thank you – is his window rolled up!?”
Khloe noted: “Yes, but the trunk is open.”
“Close the trunk!!” Kris then yelled even louder as she rolled her own window down slightly.
“So you’re yelling at a f**king guy?” Khloe asked her mom.
A month later, Kris’ former bodyguard Mark Behar claimed the matriarch is “toxic” and “addicted to fame”.
Mark told InTouch: “You’ve got to understand that with this family, that if your fame goes down they don’t have a story.
“Kris is addicted to fame and the horror stories keep them going. They go after people they use to make them bigger stars.”
In the past, the Kardashians have ousted Jordyn Woods and Larsa Pippen from their inner circle.
