Which stethoscope is best? (vote)

Published

Recently, an unfortunate event occurred and my expensive stethoscope can no longer be found :( however, I am excited to purchase a new accessory for my second year of nursing school and (hopefully) nursing practice. To help me, and hopefully others, decide which stethoscope most nurses/nursing students prefer.

My question:

What is your opinion on these stethoscopes?

Option 1

Option 2

Option 3

I plan to work as an LPN for my last year of school so I will get plenty of use from whichever scope I decide to purchase.

Which of these stethoscopes would you choose?

-or-

Do you recommend one that I have not listed?

Thank you for your input :)

Own the Cardiology III, Master Cardiology, and currently using Welch Allyn DLX Triple Head.

The Cardiology III is the most versatile. Definitely a good investment. My personal favorite is my Welch Allyn and I keep my Cardiology III as backup.

Which ever stethoscope you buy, make sure you get the chest piece engraved!

I have the cardiology III but a friend let me borrow her master cardiology and now I want to switch! It looks better too, I would recommend that one. Congratz on almost being done with school, first year was the hardest for me so you are just about done, keep it up!
