Should doctors wear white coats?

P R Harnett1.   

Abstract

The wearing of white coats by hospital doctors is becoming a rarity, making it difficult for patients to identify doctors from other hospital staff. I asked patients with cancer whether they thought that doctors, both junior and senior, should wear white coats. Only a minority disapproved.
