What color stethoscope sounds best with a dark green/hunter green scrub?
I feel like Black is what everyone's going to get. And Some colors just clash.
Black
Burgundy
Navy Blue
Hunter Green
Caribbean Blue
Gray
Ceil Blue
Purple
Raspberry
Orange
Seafoam green

Whatever you do, NO seafoam green! The horror!
I'm just teasing you. You should get the color you want. I have seen some fashion conscious nurses, but they would be silly to judge you based on the color of a stethoscope.
In fact, your stethoscope will last the longest if you're able to keep it in a scrub jacket, lab coat, or some other place besides around your neck. If you do that, no one can see whether it matches anyway.

my persnoal pref i like t he black and the vany blue, but than depends on what kind of litmman u get,k because i have a card 3 and I think it goes great with a navy blue or black(even though I have a black when I should have gotten navy blue) like a classic S.E. II looks good in black, purple, ceil blue

Get the color you want, not try to match your scrubs. Not sure if those are your school scrub colors, or job, but what happens when you graduate, or change jobs, or job decides on new colors? A stethoscope, especially a littmann could last you a good portion if not most of your carrer if you take care of it and don't lose it. You likely wont be wearing that color scrubs nearly as long. It is a tool....not an accessory

in the interests of keeping your stethescope once you've paid good money for it, get the most obnoxious color you can stand. that way, if someone attempts to walk off with it, you can spot it from a distance!

Get what ever color you want and buy some covers if you want to coordinate with your scrubs (also a good way to keep others from "borrowing" it)

i thought that was an infection issue going from patient to patient. someone let me know if i'm wrong.
