Or turn around the quotation like this " 'foo' ". I guess part of the problem 
is that open expects arguments and FreeDiams as well.

I nothing works try wrapping it in a shell sript.

On the other hand I suppose if you enclose the complete thing in quotes
open -a will interpret is a single string and not let FD parse the rest.


Just for the fun of it try nested quotes like this:

open -a 'FreeDiams.app --patientname=\"James Kirk\" --gender=M'

You might even have to escape the space:

open -a 'FreeDiams.app --patientname=\"James\ Kirk\" --gender=M'

and the M might need some quotations as well.
