Does physician attire influence patient trust and
satisfaction? A 2015 systematic review in BMJ Open [BMJ Open 2015;5:e006578.
doi:10.1136/bmjopen-2014-006578] suggests wide variability in preferences, and
difficulty in reaching robust conclusions. However, a fine grained reading of
the paper highlights some interesting findings:
1.
Patients who received
clinical care were less likely to voice preference for any type attire than
patients that did not
2.
Studies that included
physician encounters were less likely to find specific preferences (3/12
studies) compared to studies conducted outside of a physician–patient meeting
(18/18 studies).
3.
Studies originating from
the UK, Asia, Ireland and Europe most often expected formal attire with or
without white coats (especially among older people.
So, conclusions 1 and 2 seem to suggest that issues concerning physician
attire become less important as the patient experience becomes more real.
Quite helpful information on white coats. I am working in a research laboratory and it is mandatory for us to wear white lab coats. Trying to find comfortable yet designer lab coats for women at good prices as need to buy few pairs.

I know that even when I cried all day thinking about how to recover, you were not sleeping, you were dear to me. I contacted the herbal center Dr Itua, who lived in West Africa.

He prayed for me and asked me to lead. I spent 2 weeks and 2 days in Africa at Dr Itua Herbal Home. After the treatment, he asked me to meet his nurse for the HIV test when I did it. It was negative, I asked my friend to take me to another nearby hospital when I arrived, it was negative. I was overwhite with the result, but happy inside of me.
