PER CURIAM

Ella McCue appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of the Defendants in her suit alleging negligence, lack of informed consent, and assault and battery arising from the medical treatment Dr. West provided her at the Hagerstown Surgical Clinic. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See McCue v. West , No. CA-97-4182-JFM (D. Md. May 12, 1998). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED
