60 nineteen physicians, who were accustomed to making home calls, reported that they also made calls to Negro homes. However, in the light of qualifications revealed by physicians concerning general solutions to the problems of medical services to Negroes, there is a strong indication of reservation in dealing with Negro patients. Dental care for Negroes in Burlington presents somewhat of a problem, as shown by replied from dentists themselves. Three responded that they did not treat Negroes. Six served Negroes by appointment as they do whites. Others used only special times of the day or evening for Negro patients. It seems to the dentists that their major problem is the attitude of whites in following the Negro in the dental chair.
