WHEELER v. WEXFORD HEALTH SOURCES, INC.

No. 12-1806.

689 F.3d 680 (2012)

Anthony WHEELER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. WEXFORD HEALTH SOURCES, INC., et al., Defendants-Appellees.

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided July 23, 2012.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Anthony Wheeler (submitted), Danville, IL, pro se.

Before EASTERBROOK, Chief Judge, and WOOD and HAMILTON, Circuit Judges.


EASTERBROOK, Chief Judge.

In September 2011, Anthony Wheeler filed a complaint alleging that prison officials and the prison's medical provider, Wexford Health Sources, have refused to provide effective care for his golf-ball-size hemorrhoids, leaving him in excruciating pain. Documents submitted with the complaint show that Wheeler is not fantasizing. (The complaint presents other grievances too, but this is the only one we need consider on this appeal.)
