St. Luke's Hospital

Michael Brewer-Berres died at the age of 41 after abdominal surgery performed by Dr. Matthew L. Montgomery. He left behind a wife and three children who sued the hospital and its doctors for medical malpractice. Mr. Brewer-Berres suffered form sleep apnea and should have been kept in intensive care for careful monitoring after surgery; instead he was left to self administer his own pain medication on the medical/surgical floor. Ms. Brewer-Berres claimed the doctors overmedicated her husband and recently won $1.8 million in the malpractice settlement. (Mar-12-05)
