Before MELLOY, McMILLIAN, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.
       In this interlocutory appeal, Arkansas prisoner Scott Scanlon contests the
district court’s1 denial of his motion for a preliminary injunction. Scanlon claims that
defendants are violating the Eighth Amendment through their deliberate indifference
to his serious medical needs, and requests transfer to “an appropriate medical
facility.”

       The district court did not abuse its discretion in determining that a preliminary
injunction was not warranted in this case because Scanlon showed neither a threat of
irreparable harm nor a probability of success on the merits. The record reflects that
Scanlon is receiving ongoing medical care, and that he merely disagrees with
defendant medical providers’ diagnoses and treatment. See Bandag, Inc. v. Jack’s
Tire & Oil, Inc., 190 F.3d 924, 926 (8th Cir. 1999) (per curiam) (standard of review);
Smith v. Marcantonio, 910 F.2d 500, 502 (8th Cir. 1990) (mere disagreement with
course of treatment does not state constitutional claim for deliberate indifference);
Dataphase Sys., Inc. v. C.L. Sys., Inc., 640 F.2d 109, 113 (8th Cir. 1981) (en banc)
(factors to consider in deciding whether to grant preliminary injunction).

      Accordingly, we affirm.
                     ______________________________
