And the most frightening Halloween costume for medical folks?
1. Get yourself a pair of OR scrubs. Add a mid-thigh-length white coat. Fill the pockets with index cards, penlights, reflex hammers, a cell phone that beeps every 22 seconds and a couple of cheap stethoscopes. Put on a name tag with your name, followed by the letters “M” and “D.” Now add a calendar page with July 1 circled in red. You’re a brand-new resident.
Enjoy the spoils when you win the costume contest!
