Docs at St. Luke's unhappy about naming tower after lawyer

Doctors at St. Luke's Episcopal in Houston are angry about a $25 million gift to the hospital system from a local trial lawyer who made his fortune suing the healthcare industry, the Houston Chronicle reports. Doctors at St. Luke's say renaming the hospital's landmark medical tower after John O'Quinn is an insult and are trying to block the deal. Thus far, the administration has been unmoved. O'Quinn is perhaps best known locally for a series of suits targeting Dow Corning on behalf of Texas women who had breast implants in the 1980s and 1990s.
