What kind of Stethoscope do you have?

Published

Embarrassed to admit I'm still using a VERY cheap one I had while in Nursing School. I'm long overdue for an upgrade. Please suggest one and let me know what you have and if you like it. And how much it costs if you don't mind sharing.

Thanks so much.

I use an Ultrascope and could not be happier.

I have 3 Littman's and my favorite is the Master Cardiology. Pricey, yes, but I can hear wonderfully with it. It's a bit heavy, but I've gotten used to it. I got it engraved with my name and don't let it out of my sight---especially when MD's borrow it!!

Littmann Cardiology III. I paid $156 for it (discounted through work), brand new. I was able to split it up into 4 payments that they deducted from my paychecks. I love my stethoscope - I can hear very well with it and I think it looks very sharp. The only downside is that the Cardiology III is heavier than some of the other Littmann's, but it honestly doesn't bother me. I also have a Classic II that I used throughout nursing school and that is another great choice as well.
