Scrubs Question

This might sound stupid, but i keep wondering - Why are some doctors wear scrubs all the time, but others, like Elliott for example, don't?

i know literally nothing about doctors, so can someone fill me in?

Thanks everyone! :)

Scrubs  best answer

Interns and residents wear scrubs, though residents do get their own lab coat (as they're now fully licensed to practice medicine).

Attendings (practitioners who've completed their residency) tend to wear the lab coat, with or or without the scrubs. It's really personal preference at that stage - i.e. J.D. is almost always in scrubs, whereas Dr. Cox tends to dress in street clothes under his lab coat.

And Elliot wore scrubs until season 5, when she started a short fellowship at another hospital. She came back to Sacred Heart a few episodes later as an attending, and then private practice, and since then has only worn scrubs once on the show.

Elliot is and Internal Med doc now.. I believe it was the DVD commentary they were joking around that the executives wanted Elliot to be more sexy and appealing on the show. So they changed Elliot to an IM doc and let her wear sexy clothes. If you start watching all the seasons she gets more dolled up in each episode! They were also joking around in the commentary about how many times Sara ends up in scenes in her bra... Sorry I love scrubs. The commentaries are fun to listen too well most and you learn a lot.
