Stethoscope Color Help!

Published

Hey guys! Starting nursing school this year and I'm deciding between three Littmann scopes- lavender, turquoise, and raspberry rainbow. If the turquoise looks like a Tiffany blue in person I'm all for it, but it seems too dark in the pictures. Is the lavender a darker mid-tone purple or a true light lavender? Is the raspberry rainbow obnoxious? I know it seems silly-- but headed into such a difficult program/profession I know that it will be the little things that keep my head up. :) Please post any pictures you have!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my turquoise/smoke finish; my friend has lavender and it's not really as purple as she had hoped kinda pinkish purple; the raspberry is pretty but more of a deep burgundy than pink.

... I will post pics of mine in the next post from my phone ...

Just a little something to keep in mind: your class will be mostly females so everyone is going to show up on their first day with a pink or purple stethoscope. I'm so glad mine was a light green. I was able to keep track of it!
