    FAQs

    Modern slim vs traditional roomy?

    Personal preference + workplace. Modern slim often preferred by younger clinicians. Traditional more breathable for hot environments. Both work.

    Lab coat over scrubs?

    Yes — lab coat sized to fit over scrub top + ample movement. Pick lab coat 1 size up from scrub top size for comfortable layering.
