WELFARE PHYSICIAN
To the Honorable Board of Public Welfare:
Living conditions have been better this year, and likewise general health. At the Town Infirmary there has been no unusual illness and sixty-six calls were made there. Many of them were for minor ailments.
In the homes of the community one hundred sixty- two visits were required, and one hundred twenty-eight office calls. These figures are not too high for a town the size of Milford, and probably may be taken as proof that the local physicians do not desert their patients when adversity overcomes them.
The Board of Public Welfare and the office employees have been of much assistance and encouragement to me in the pursuit of my duties.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN V. GALLAGHER, M. D.
