      lol more likely than not it will be an incredibly expensive thing so unless you’re super wealthy you’ll need to spend most of your reincarnated life working to pay for it

      It’s common to see medical staff wearing them. I guess because they are comfortable 😁

        They don’t slip when the floor is covered in blood/bodily fluids. People shit on Alien Covenant for the slipping on blood scene, you can tell those people have never been around blood before. Also they’re very easy to clean.

          I’ve literally never seen anyone wear Crocs and I’ve worked at several hospitals and now have a job that visits and consults with hospitals.

          100% of OR staff wear disposable shoe covers and bedside staff wear comfortable sneakers or Dansko clogs. Crocs makes clogs, but they don’t have the quality for 12 hour shifts.

            Working in an NHS hospital, nearly anyone in scrubs is wearing Ezi-klogs. Which technically aren’t Crocs, but are so close visually everyone calls them crocs.

      No fabric to soak up fluids, they’re light, they don’t easily slip.

      They’re pretty common in North American hospitals.

      I’m not.

      In my country we have public (and free!) healthcare, but doctors wait until it’s life-threatening to treat patients. My mother has been two (2) times in preop for her goiter, and she’s still waiting for almost 2 years for the actual procedure. I have been waiting for almost a year for an umbilical hernia.

      Private healthcare is the same I heard, except well, you pay.

        you’d think a public healthcare system would figure out that treating conditions early is actually cheaper.

    This is why you should try to get into an HMO in the states. Ideally one that is not for profit.
