Things every doctor (and those who play them) wears on TV. You know: Lab coat Stethoscope on the neck or around the coat's collar (obsolete) Otolaryngologist / head mirror on forehead Clipboard Dinky little glasses Nurses will usually have that folded white cap with The Red Cross logo on it and a starched white skirt-and-blouse or minidress uniform. And specially for Deadly Doctors: Big rubber gloves Lots of syringes What easier way to tell the audience what the character does besides these things? |

Bleach: Ryuuken Ishida is the Director of Karakura General Hospital and a qualified surgeon. Outside work, he's a Badass in a Nice Suit. In work, he never removes the lab coat even when doing paperwork. He's never performed surgery on-screen. Isshin Kurosaki also wears his lab coat constantly during work hours. He's a hands-on GP who has no surgical skill and is only equipped to diagnose and treat minor injuries. He has to send more serious medical cases to Ryuuken's hospital. |

Story of Seasons: The series likes to dress their medical characters in white clothes. Alex from Harvest Moon: Magical Melody and Hardy from Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life are two doctors who wear white labcoats. The doctor from Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town wears a white labcoat and head mirror, which is also his attire in Harvest Moon DS. Subverted, though, when he appears as a minor character named Trent in Harvest Moon: Island of Happiness and instead wears a brown vest over a white shirt. Subverted with Marian in Story of Seasons (2014), who wears an extravagant magenta pantssuit and a stylized white coat. He even mentions that he's a doctor, despite his looks. The nurse Elli's redesign in Story Of Season Friends Of Mineral Town gives her an apron with crosses on them. |

Averted in Scrubs, where JD only ever wears the usual white coat in one episode and it's a plot point then. Many other doctors do wear it, though. They wear (and use) stethoscopes, however. JD and Turk do wear a large lab coat when playing the World's Most Giant Doctor. The show (correctly) portrays most of the doctors, nurses and surgeons as wearing scrubs. | |

In Final Fantasy XIV, the Sage's exclusive class armor features mostly white robes and a special visor in place of the more typical modern stethosocpe. It's also the most "modern" of the healer jobs available as of Endwalker, mixing aetherology and the latest Sharlayan technology with cutting-edge medical techniques to heal allies and shield them from damage as well as attack foes with Beam Spam via their nouliths. | |

Kamen Rider Ex-Aid goes with some of the points noted bellow in Real Life section. Wearing white coat is treated as a symbol of being doctor. note One episode is named White Coat License because of this. Emu Hojo is a pediatrician who wears gaming t-shirts to go with his informal attitude towards his patients, one of whom had white coat syndrome. Version of stethoscope, called gamescope, is used for initial diagnose of Game Disease. | |

She joked that "Night Nurse" sounded better than "Night General Practitioner". Doctor Strange suggested once that she had a "Florence Nightingale fetish". | |

Fallout: In Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, white coats are not only worn by scientists and doctors, but often actually confer extra medical or scientific skills to non-doctors wearing them. Field medics and wasteland doctors instead wear fatigues and tank tops. With disturbing amounts of blood splatter. You can also find plenty of scrubs in Big MT, though never worn since their original owners are either dead or have become brains in jars. | |

Mr. Bean in Bean sees a doctor drop his stethoscope and tries to give it back to him. As a result of this trope he is mistaken for a senior surgeon and is scrubbed up for a major operation despite not having any identification or uniform and has to perform surgery on a patient. The patient survives. Somehow. | |

In BioShock, the Dr. Grossman Splicer model is dressed in a dirtied surgical gown and mask with gloves and a large magnifying glass strapped to his head in lieu of the usual head-mirror. Dr. Steinman, who is based on the Grossman Splicer, is dressed similarly, albeit his entire outfit is fully red (possibly not its original color). Ironically, their main purpose in the game is to cause as much harm to you as possible. | |

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine Apothecaries wear white Power Armor and a nasty-looking narthecium◊ (to pry open dead Marines' armor and carapace and extract their geneseed. And disembowel enemies while they're at it). | |

The Medic of Team Fortress 2 wears a white labcoat and gloves. A patch eventually added a Randomly Drops mirror for his head and a surgical mask for his face. In the beta, he had a stethoscope slung around his neck for absolutely no reason. While he no longer carries it with him, it can still be seen in his cubby in the respawn room, and another Randomly Drops item allows him to put it back around his neck. | |

Spoofed in the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode "Stare Master". For some reason, the Cutie Mark Crusaders wear head mirrors and stethoscopes while trying to be carpenters. | |

Least I Could Do: Rayne's brother, Eric, wears a lab coat, not to show his intent to heal, but to attract women with his profession. Lampshaded hilariously when he removes it and hides it while walking past a car accident with an injured victim. | |

Trauma Center (Atlus), as a series centered around medical professionals, naturally has a lot of recognizable outfits. There are a few variations though: instead of a head mirror, doctors are issued a piece of headgear that would not look out of place in Sam Fisher's wardrobe, and Caduces apparently has their nurses' uniforms made to very specific order, judging by how well-defined their chests are. | |

In Tales of the Abyss, one of Jade's alternate costumes has him dressed as a doctor, with a head mirror accompanying the labcoat so that you know he's dressed as a doctor and not a Mad Scientist. (Given that this is Jade we're talking about, they did in fact need to make the distinction clear.) | |

In City of Heroes, Dr Vahzilok wears the head-mirror, though no other surgical garb (which likely would not fit his grotesquely surgically altered form). Interestingly, he is actually wearing it correctly, positioned over his right eye rather than in the center of his forehead. | |
