1Opinion of the Court

ESCHBACH, Circuit Judge.

Derrick Williams was allegedly subjected to repeated acts of medical malpractice while he was an inmate at Joliet Correctional Center (“Joliet”) and Stateville Correctional Center (“Stateville”). Contending that this amounted to a constitutional violation, Williams brought an action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against those responsible for his medical care. He now appeals from the district court’s grant of a judgment as a matter of law on qualified immunity grounds in favor of two of the defendants, Dr. Arthur Brewer and Dr. George Kurian. We affirm.
