It's the employer's guidelines, it's your personal preference, and the patient's perception. So does the physician's attire really matter? According to studies, the answer is yes. First impressions are alive and well and if you want it or not, people perceive the first impression they get from what they wear and how people look. Based on what people see, they immediately judge how trustworthy you are, how competent you are, how smart you are, and even how much you earn. For doctors, that perception goes even deeper because of your profession, people have a higher degree of trust and expect more of a professionalism than with other people. On top of that, dressing the part helps you to visually set yourself apart so when you enter a room, it's clear that you're the doctor, not the patient, not the nurse, or anyone else. When in doubt and you don't know what to wear, going a notch up is always better than going a notch down because it adds that additional professional appearance that represents you as a doctor and the institution you work for. So what should you wear as a doctor? First of all, if your organization has a strict dress code in place, follow that and don't try to step outside of those boundaries. If a BBE policy or bare below the elbows policy is in place, of course, you have to skip the jackets and the long sleeve dress shirts. Now, you can either go with a polo shirt or you can have a dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up. Personally, I'm not a big fan of short sleeved shirts, however, if that's what works best in your situation, go for it. If all you need in white is a lab coat, you can wear a 2pc suit even a 3pc suit which helps to keep your tie in if you wear one. You should always wear a tie with a 3pc suit. If you go with a 2pc suit, you can go with a bow tie or a tie, or you can skip it altogether, it really depends on your preference. If you plan to spend the day in your lab coat, it really pays to invest in a number of different dress shirts because they will be the backbone of your doctor's wardrobe. As you know, a work day can be really long and so it pays to invest in quality shoes. Now, a lot of doctors wear tennis shoes and there are different ranges of what you can wear. I personally find Goodyear welted shoes extremely comfortable even if I wear them all day long because they have a cork bed, they are extremely elegant. If you want to go all white, you can even find white buck skin wing tips that work very well for doctors, otherwise, you can go with just a regular Oxford or even better, derby shoes because of the open lacing system, they are usually more comfortable when you wear them for longer times. Personally, I find bow ties are perfect for doctors because one, they don't interfere with your day to day work and b, they make you stand out from all the others instantly. So as a conclusion, the best thing you can do as a doctor is to always put in the extra effort and dress in the way that makes you look more professional.If a suit is too much, go with a combination. If you can't wear jackets, go with dress shirts and roll up sleeves or short sleeved shirts and try to accessorize what you have and always go with neckwear especially a bow tie because it sets you apart from others and it does not interfere with your work. #doctorderessing #styleadvice #notsponsored -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Most Popular videos: How to accept a compliment -    • How to Accept a Compliment, Give One In Re...   101 things that change when you dress up -    • 101 Things That Change When You Dress Up   How to tie a Bow Tie -    • HOW TO TIE A BOW TIE Step-By-Step The Easy...   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to stay updated?
