Feedback
Dentist comments: “Your product is superior.”
“These scrubs have proven from the first washing to keep their shape and color. Most uniforms, after the second wash, start to look faded. As a dentist, I never wore uniforms until now!”
“Finally, a uniform made for a MAN!”
Hygienist comments
“With COVID-19, my main concern was my protection. When I saw the advertisement on Instagram that said they were waterproof, I ordered that day. Practices need that added layer of security and peace of mind.”
“I felt like I was wearing Spanx. I looked like I lost weight in these.”
“These scrubs have proven from the first washing to keep their shape, color, and sharpness. It still amazes me how they look brand new right out of the washer.”
Assistant comments:
“When your patients give you compliments about your uniform, you know these look good!”
“These scrubs are amazing! Waterproof and breathable? This assistant is impressed. Please do yourself a favor and order a pair; they speak for themselves. These are now my go-to brand!”
“When I bend over, they do not slip down. I hate most uniforms for this very reason. I am a big girl, and most uniforms do not fit my size. I was pleasantly surprised. Thank you for not assuming everyone is a size 4."
