Re: What color Stethoscope to buy?

Hi there!

I decided on burgundy. I really wanted an ultrascope, but our school won't permit them so I'm going with the Littman. I was going to go with black b/c of the "professionalism" etc...but then I thought for me it's boring.

Frankly I think they could do more with the range of colors but that's not our purpose for being there!

Good luck

Michele

A friend of mine who is a nurse bought me a purple stethoscope for Christmas. She said everyone has black and they're less likely to swipe a purple one. The best part: She had our favorite Grammy award winning singer sign the box for me!

Haha! My stethescope is a burgundy Littman. I wish we were allowed more extravagant ones because it could ease the conversations between some of the more stoic patients, but as of now, I'm only allowed this one.

Re: What color Stethoscope to buy?

I have a pink Littman (Breast Cancer....$5 donated to charity) and a burgundy Littman (Cardiac one and didn't have a lot of color choices...gummed).

There was an ALL black cardiac one I thought about getting because it was ALL black and different but I don't really want black...would have gotten it if it was ALL pink or purple or something fun.
