摘要
The physician's white coat seems to be under assault as changing trends lead to the adoption of the softshell jacket, fleece, and fitted scrubs. This article reviews literature on the history of the white coat and its role as the institutional garb of the medical doctor. It also examines the literature on patient perception of the white coat and greater impressions regarding the importance of physician attire.
