NORTHCUTT, Judge.

Carl Hughes sued the appellees for medical malpractice, but at trial the court granted them directed verdicts when Hughes rested his case. He challenges the propriety of those directed verdicts on appeal. We affirm without comment as to Dr. Steven Warren, Dr. Steven Epstein and Bay Area Surgical Associates. We reverse the directed verdicts in favor of Dr. Michael Slomka and Tampa Bay Orthopaedic Specialists.1
