I'm going to take a wild guess it's due to physicians and nurses taking an oath not to hurt anyone. Just a guess, mind you.
(Are those physicians and nurses that murder children everyday take that
oath not to hurt anyone. I think so, just a guess, mind you)

Seriously, a physician, no matter how he felt about capital punishment, would be in danger of losing his medical license if his name was revealed.
(Seriously, a person could be trained as an Anesthesiologist for that
reason working for the state without taking the oath, I know
it's complicated.)

Currently in Alabama, paramedics start the IV and wardens start the drip.
