Don’t fall for the stereotypical..”you should look this way.” If your work is good, people won’t care what your look is” most of the time. I will say I had a gen practitioner that was one of the smartest medical professionals in the area that flipped his lid, started painting his fingernails, grew his hair out and put a perm in it (you get the idea) and it did make my continued medical relationship with him. But I didn’t stop going to him since I didn’t go to the dr often and he was so smart. Unfortunately he got sick and passed away before Covid. It was sad because i would have loved to hear his opinion on Covid.

I grew a mullet summer '23 before a big trip. Patients loved it. Live your truth 🙌🏻
