Description

Appellants-plaintiffs appeal from a summary judgment in favor of appellee-defendant in a malpractice case against a medical doctor. Appellant, Pamela Sue Siebert, is a diabetic. She sought treatment from appellee, an ophthalmologist in Casper, for a "floater" or blood in the vitreous of her eye (a common occurrence in diabetic cases). Appellants contend that appellee was negligent in the treatment afforded to her by him. On appeal, appellants contend that - Page 257 an affidavit of Lemuel T. Moorman, M.D., filed by appellee in support of the motion for summary judgment did not sufficiently reflect proposed evidence which would necessitate a judgment for appellee if such evidence were not controverted. And if it did so, appellants contend that an affidavit of Kenneth R. Fox, M.D. filed in opposition to the motion for summary judgment, together with deposition evidence, reflected the existence of controverting evidence, thus establishing issues of material facts.
