Inept doctor left deadly trail, brain injury lawsuit says

Meadowview Regional Medical Center in 2008 announced that it was providing new cardiac care services, including angioplasties, procedures in which a cardiologist inflates a tiny balloon inside an artery to clear a blockage.

The Texas Medical Board suspended Gunn's medical license on July 7.

According to Texas board notes, "The action was based on Dr. Gunn's incarceration in a federal correctional institution."

John Q. Kelly, New York brain injury lawyer, who is representing Lang's family in the lawsuit against the hospital and its parent company, says the case is about "whether the Maysville hospital met the standard of care and complied with its own policies in granting privileges to Dr. Gunn."
