Clothing Choices For Medical Professionals

The best clothing selection for female Doctors and medical professionalsWomanDoc is the white Doctor’s lab coat

and for male Doctors and medical personnel it is dress slacks, shirt, a tie AND a white Doctor’s lab coat.

This combination conveys that the doctor is a member of an elite group. It identifies the profession and encourages patient trust. It’s a high authority/credibility look and inspires confidence.

Recent patient studies have shown that Dentists tested well with pale blue and beige lab coats, but white was the highest rated for all other medical professionals.

One of the worst looks for men in the medical profession is a business suit.

People object to a doctor looking like a business man. It reminds them of the costs involved, and they are more likely to question the doctor’s advice.

PUNCHE OR LUNGI

Panche or Lungi

A Lungi, also known as sarong, is a traditional garment of India. A Mundu is a lungi, except that it is always white. It is either tucked in, over the waist, up to knee-length or is allowed to lie over and reach up to the ankle. It is usually tucked in when the person is working, in fields or workshops, and left open usually as a mark of respect, in worship places or when the person is around dignitaries.

Lungis, generally, are of two types: the open lungi and the stitched lungi. The open lungi is a plain sheet of cotton or silk, whereas the stitched one has both of its open ends stitched together to form a tube like structure.

Though mostly worn by men, elderly women also prefer lungi to other garments owing to its good aeration. It is mostly popular in south India, though people of Bangladesh, Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar and Somalia also can be seen in lungis, because of the heat and humidity, which create an unpleasant climate for trousers, though trousers have now become common outside the house.
