I bought a Littman Master Classic II with my name on it and love it. Most people find less expensive scopes work well for them. I'm hard of hearing and needed something that worked better for me.
Cheap, so when you lose it you don't feel so bad!!! I find that a basic stethoscope works fine in med surg. ICU or cardiac specialty floors may require a more sensitive one.
