Dressing to Inspire Confidence: My Kevin MD Podcast Conversation

On my recent podcast appearance with Kevin Pho, M.D., we talked about the way the clothes you wear can impact the way that you're perceived by your patients, your colleagues, and your staff.

For instance, are your administrators wearing scrubs? Probably not, because they understand the language and the power of clothing and presentation.

There is research on the way that physicians, especially women, are judged by the clothes that they wear. And whether we like it or not, clothing is an important signifier of professionalism to patients and family.

You don't have to be uncomfortable, feel restricted, or spend big bucks for a professional wardrobe. I'll tell you more in the article on the KevinMD website and on the podcast, including simple ways to incorporate professional attire.
