I've seen this pathologist with an earing and both arms filled with tattoos...
I've recently seen a metal stud in a woman's cheek.
funny you should ask - i called for a peds ENT consult the otehr day. i met the resident: gorgeous girl, kinda tomboyish, short hair, with TONS of piercings?! i was SHOCKED!!! i mean, i'm kinda into some of 'em, so i thought she looked fine, but she definietly cuaght me off guard: i think she had 3 or 4 earrings bilaterally, and then a nose stud, and then an eyebrow ring too. i later met her attendign who seemed to be the most conservative man on the planet...it was interesting watching them interact.
In Seattle, I knew docs that had eyebrow, tongue, nose, and lip piercings. Also saw some with tats and long hair.
Seattle though is very open about lifestyles and choices....even for their docs.

Just a thought I had, not that this is true in all incidences...
Across the room diagnostic tool:
More rings than fingers- borderline personality disorder
More tatoos than teeth- antisocial personality disorder
I imagine facial piercings involving placements of studs/rings count as 'rings.'

I knew a resident with tounge, multiple ear, eyebrow, lip and belly piercing. She just wore clear plastic placeholders when at the hospital and put her metal back in when she went home.
if ya didn't know to look, they would have been invisible.

Do you have an issue with one?
I asked because I used to have a lipring, and would like it back, but have resisted fearing prejudice.

I'm 1:1, borderline borderline personality disorder?

I want to get a lip ring but I'm not how well this would go over with my school or a residency director.
I wore a retainer in my eyebrow when I interviewed for med school. It makes it difficult to see but by no means invisible.
I have been suprised how nonchalant and accepting people, patients and doctors, have been when I do forget to put the retainer in.
