Doctors Bag: Chic or Boring - Which do you prefer?

I was looking for a doctors bag (for a GP friend of mine) and I found that all the bags on the market are so predictably subfusc.

If you are looking to buy a traditional doctors bag, you can buy one from this shop. Though it is nothing like the one in the picture, but it will do.

I was looking for something like the one which Paul Smith had in his collection many moons ago, see the picture above. Featuring a long shape with slightly rounded edges, the doctor’s bag was made popular by Prada when it introduced its nylon and leather version. These so called “Doctors Bag” can also be used as a purse or an overnight bag.

A doctor’s bag is named for its functionality. Doctor’s emergency bag has to be big, able to carry instruments, stethoscope and emergency drugs. It should also have a washable lining, lots of inner pockets, with variable compartment divisions. Doctors bag should also have separate compartments for carrying emergency drugs etc. See the list below.

Ideally, a doctors bag should be made of real leather or polyester for the cheap variety.

GP’s, use these voluminous bags depending on their needs. Some prefer to wear a jacket or coat with capacious pockets rather than carry a bag. But, in my opinion, that does not replace a doctors bag.

Doctors need a voluminous bag which will carry all the emergency equipment like:-

* Stethoscope
* Emergency drugs,
* torch,
* blood pressure instruments,
* nebulizers,
* BNF (British National Formulary)
* Gloves
* Sterets or Alcohol wipes
* Knee Hammer
* Face Mask
* Ecg Monitors
* Glucometer
* Pulse Oximeter
* Tape Measure
* Lubricating Jelly
* Pens and stationary Items
* Last, but not the least, prescription pads to write prescriptions on

So which one do you prefer a Chic Doctors bag or dull and boring ones?
