Match Day is just around the corner! Finding the perfect gift to celebrate the accomplishments of that new resident in your life may seem daunting. We asked several medical students what they would not only want, but would constantly use throughout their medical journey. If you’re struggling to find that practical gift that your physician will love, look no further. Here is a list of the top 10 things to get your loved one for Match!
1 LAB COAT
New degree, new credentials! A high quality lab coat is the ultimate symbol of accomplishment for a new doctor. You can make this gift even more personal and meaningful with customized embroidery of his or her name, title, or logo...it's the closest they can get to wearing their diploma.
2 SLEEP MASK
>Anyone in medicine is no stranger to lack of sleep. Whether it’s working night shift, late night studying, or just an inconsistent sleep schedule, a comfortable, light blocking luxury sleep mask can be a life saver.
3 SCRUB SET
Though you can’t buy confidence, you can buy a new pair of scrubs… and that’s almost the same thing. Medelita Scrubs are designed for maximum durability, functional performance, effortless professional style and not to mention are the only scrubs that can be washed on hot!
4 SNACK SUBSCRIPTION
One thing medical students learn early on is that you never say no to free food. As a new resident doctor, that lesson still applies. While always on the go, gifting a snack subscription is a thoughtful way to care for your physician.
5 SCRUB JACKET
Whether they’re on shift or running errands, our scrub jackets are the perfect way to keep your loved one warm in cold environments and comfortable in heated, high pressure situations.
6 ERASABLE PENS & NOTEBOOK
We’ve all heard jokes about illegible doctor handwriting. Help them help you by gifting some high quality erasable pens. To go along with that new erasable pen, this hand stitched, leather bound notebook looks professional and feels functional with its highest quality writing paper to prevent bulky or heavy pockets when making rounds.
