#4: The White Coat

In this episode we take a look at a ceremony celebrated by medical schools across the country in which new medical students are given their first white coat. We interview brand new students, experienced clinicians, and medical school staff to find out what the white coat and the white coat ceremony mean to them. If you wish to find more information on the white coat ceremony and its origins visit www.gold-foundation.org.
