Kenneth Franklin Huddleston, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

   Appellant, a Virginia inmate, appeals from the district court's

order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint under

28 U.S.C. § 1915 (1994), amended by Prison Litigation Reform Act,
Pub. L. No. 104-134, 110 Stat. 1321 (1996). We have reviewed the

record and the district court's opinion and find no reversible

error. Appellant, at most, alleges a disagreement with the prison

doctors as to the course of medical treatment that he received.

Such allegations are not cognizable under § 1983. See Wright v.

Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 849 (4th Cir. 1985). Accordingly, we affirm.

We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-

tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                          AFFIRMED
