The most common medical uniform worn by the medical personnel are the lab coat, scrubs and the nurse uniform.

  1. Nice reviews. I am also impressed with my new FIGS surgical scrubs. If you too want decent looking scrub sets then I strongly recommend this brand to everyone. They have designer uniforms in all sizes and also at very reasonable prices.
