☆ The reason why doctors wear a white coat is actually because the profession of medicine only gained its respect and acceptability about 150 years or so ago.

☆ Before that, those working in the medical field were usually lower down the social hierarchy, since medicine was often the haphazard domain of quacks and barbers, with no regulation as to who could practice medicine. Indeed, minor surgeries were often done by barbers, along with dental extractions.

☆ This changed over time, though, and a healthy respect for the sciences extended to medicine as well, with greater regulation over practice of medicine coming about.

☆ Doctors started wearing white lab coats to signify that they were also scientists, and the white coat began instilling confidence amongst patients visiting such doctors.

☆ White coats also signified purity, and became inextricably linked to the image of scientists and doctors.
