   SgtWyatt replied to Buckyxj's topic in Men in Nursing

5. Help me find the best scrub brand for me (male)

   SgtWyatt replied to Nolander's topic in Men in Nursing

   I've recently started wearing IguanaMed scrubs. They are an athletic fit so you might have to go up a size but when you do they should fit ok since they're cut slimmer than the other brands. Lots of...

    SgtWyatt replied to matthewandrew's topic in California Nursing
