A chain of California dental clinics that allegedly refused to treat four men infected with the AIDS virus was sued Thursday in what is being portrayed as a new effort to crack down on AIDS discrimination by health care providers.
Attorneys in the lawsuit against Western Dental Services Inc.--which widely advertises as Dr. Beauchamp, the Credit Dentist--said it may be the first of several suits targeting dentists who practice such bias.
