Patient's Preference on Neurosurgeon's Attire and Appearance: A Single Center Study in Korea Cross-Sectional Study.

The patients in this study preferred professional attire along with a white coat compared to any other form of outfit. This result is similar to those of many other studies conducted in other departments or other countries. However, patients did not have a strong negative view on accessories, dyeing, and facial hair. With regard to medical training, patients did not show a preference for their neurosurgeon's educational background.
