From Dentist to Dad: Dr. Vince Riggio Shares His Journey

Jun 10, 2024

At TiScrubs, we’re always eager to learn more about the professionals who wear our scrubs. This time, we’re honored to feature Dr. Vince Riggio, a dentist who’s recently embraced fatherhood, offering him fresh perspectives both at work and at home. Join us as we sit down with him to chat about dentistry and being a dad. What initially drew you to dentistry as a profession? Dr. Riggio: "I’ve always been drawn to healthcare. Dentistry appealed to me because it blends the care aspects with the autonomy of running a practice. It’s the perfect mix of being a healthcare provider and a small business owner." How has becoming a father changed your perspective on your work? Dr. Riggio: "It’s definitely made me more patient and empathetic. Being a father makes you rethink how you interact with others; I find myself more understanding and better at putting myself in my patients' shoes." How do you balance your new role as a father with your career? Dr. Riggio: "It's about finding the right balance and being present in both roles. I try to be fully engaged at work during the day and then give my full attention to family when I'm home." How has fatherhood influenced your relationships with colleagues and patients? Dr. Riggio: "It’s made me a better listener and more patient. These qualities definitely help in building stronger relationships with both colleagues and patients." Any advice for other working parents in healthcare? Dr. Riggio: "Stay organized and don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. Balancing work and family is challenging but also incredibly rewarding." What features do you look for in scrubs for your work? Dr. Riggio: "Comfort is key. I prefer materials that feel good and allow for easy movement, much like athletic wear. TiScrubs are great because they’re not just breathable but also lightweight, which is crucial for long days." Can you describe how comfortable and functional scrubs contribute to your effectiveness as a dentist? Dr. Riggio: "Absolutely. The comfort and functionality of TiScrubs allow me to perform my best without feeling restricted. The stretchy material lets me move freely, which is essential for both simple check-ups and lengthy procedures." Join Leaders Like Dr. Riggio Follow in the footsteps of professionals like Dr. Riggio who choose TiScrubs for their daily rounds. Our scrubs cater to all healthcare workers, offering both comfort and durability. Shop the collection to discover your new favorite scrubs.

A "Handmade Tale" About My Fair Ellie

Sep 7, 2022

Once upon a time (okay, maybe about five years ago), a creative nurse named Cassie (who also happens to be a supermom) began making decorations -- much like puffy stickers from the 80s -- for the badge reels that she and her coworkers were wearing at the hospital where she worked. And voilà -- the Badge Buddies craze was born!  What's so special about Badge Buddies? Everything, pretty much, but our favorite thing about them is that they are hand-cut and stitched by women who wish or need to work from home or who simply want a side hustle. There's nothing like the handmade feel of My Fair Ellie's badge reel toppers; the mass-produced ones don't even come close. Another thing we love about Badge Buddies is that they are interchangeable, so you can swap them out as often as you'd like. Collecting and mixing and matching can be quite fun -- and addictive! We thought Badge Buddies were so nifty that we asked Cassie if her team at My Fair Ellie would make exclusive Badge Buddy designs for TiScrubs, and we were thrilled when she said yes.  We have Badge Buddies for all types of healthcare providers, from veterinarians to eye doctors. We also have Badge Buddies for sports fanatics, animal lovers, and anyone who just likes to make their workday a little more fun! Our TiScrubs Badge Buddies look great with our solid-color scrubs, but we also have badge reel topper designs that match our awesome print scrub tops. Our favorite is our "Gone Bananas" bundle (shown here). We also did a double-collaboration with another partner of ours -- Charlie Hustle -- to make Charlie Hustle Badge Buddies! How does this tale end? Hopefully you will fall in love with Badge Buddies, too!

A "Handmade Tale" About My Fair Ellie

The Dental Scrubs You Need

May 17, 2021

As a dental professional, your daily tasks are different than, say, those of a medical doctor, nurse, or veterinarian. Sure, there are many similarities, too, but there’s no doubt about it -- you do some things your other friends in healthcare don’t have to -- or can’t do? One obvious difference is the fact that your focus is on the oral health of humans. So if you’re going to wear a scrub top that has a fun print, you probably want one that gives a nod to lips, gums, those pearly whites, toothbrushes, floss, toothpaste --all the usual “mouth stuff”. Finding print scrub tops for dental professionals that aren’t juvenile or just downright ugly can be challenging to say the least. Other scrub brands (many of which have been around far too long to even be relevant anymore) are about forty years behind when it comes to the designs they use for their print scrub tops, and they seem to think that grown adults still love cartoons as much as they did when they were five years old. At TiScrubs we believe that just because you want a print scrub top (versus a solid-color scrub top) does not mean that all of your good taste has to go out the window. We design dental scrub prints that are fresh, bold, and classy. Not Ugly Dental Print Scrubs Whether you give off super-serious vibes at work or consider it a place to test comedic material for your impending open-mic night debut, we have the perfect tooth scrub top designs for you. Take our “Fresh Smile” Dental Scrub Top. It has a bold pattern of different mouths with pretty, white teeth and bright red lips. It is guaranteed to land you a compliment or two from patients every time you wear it. We also have a more reserved dental scrub top design called the “Clean Teeth” Dental Scrub Top. In a black and white color palette, it features toothbrushes, toothpaste, and molars, all arranged in a subtle and sophisticated pattern. And, with both of these designs, you will look professional. Let’s be honest, it’s important for you to look professional because everyone knows that patients do better in the chair when they believe that the person wielding that needle knows what’s up. Our dental print scrub tops don’t just look good; they are functional. They have three pockets -- one perfectly-placed chest pocket and two lower pockets that are deep enough for just about everything you’ve got. Our dental print scrub tops are made from soft and stretchy fabric that is moisture-wicking so you stay dry throughout your day. Solid Scrubs For Dental Professionals We also have solid-color scrubs that are perfect for dental professionals. If you’re a dentist or a dental hygienist, your work requires you to sit most of the day with your legs straddled and your back hunched over. Of course, we can’t help you with your neck and back issues (sorry!), but our new Stretch Collection scrubs will ensure that you won’t rip or tear the crotch of your scrub pants when you least expect it, thanks to our reinforced stitching. Another unique thing dentists have to do is wear dental loupes. We’ve got you covered there, too. We created the perfect place (a fabric loop on the back of your scrub top) to clip the battery pack for your loupes light. If you’re in endodontics, bleach might be something you have to deal with on a regular basis. Our new Stretch Collection scrubs can tolerate small splashes of bleach here and there. You can simply hit it with some water right away, and your scrubs won’t be totally ruined. Why Our Dental Scrubs Are The Best We wanted to make sure that our Stretch Collection scrubs were the perfect dental scrubs, so we tested them in a large dental practice during the product development phase. Here were just some of the things they asked for that we made sure to address:  We want stretchy scrubs. Our Stretch Collection scrubs are 97% poly and 3% Spandex. Our stretchy performance fabric can handle all of those unique sitting positions and body bends. The crotch of our scrub pants can’t rip. We use reinforced stitching in the crotch of our Stretch scrubs. I need a place for my instruments. We loaded up our Stretch Collection scrubs with pockets galore. You name it, we have a pocket for it. My tummy can’t show when I raise up my arms. We tested all of our Stretch scrub tops to make sure your stomach stays hidden. My coin slot can’t show when I bend down or lean over. We tested our Stretch collection scrub pants until we made sure no cracks would show. We’ve got you covered on this! I need scrubs that are easy to care for. Our Stretch Collection scrubs don’t shrink, they don’t fade, they are resistant to bleach and they are resistant to pet hair. I don’t want anyone to know I’m sweating. Our Stretch Collection scrubs are moisture-wicking to keep you cool and dry, and antimicrobial to keep the sweat odor to a minimum. No other scrub brand focuses on dental professionals the way we do. You came to the right place -- we have the best dental scrubs in the biz.

The Best Designer Scrubs Around

Apr 19, 2021

These days, designer scrubs should be the rule, not the exception. Yet, dinosaur brands continue to crank out what we call “potato sack scrubs” -- you know, scrubs that are made from stiff and scratchy woven cotton with nary a hint of style and zero functionality. (Woven cotton is a whole different ballgame from the soft knit cotton that is used to make t-shirts.) Why they are still pedaling the same scrubs they sold forty years ago is a mystery, considering we live in a time when our refrigerators remind us when it’s time to buy more milk and our Apple watches nag us when we still need a few more steps. Shouldn’t the same innovation and technology be applied to healthcare uniforms?Designer scrubs defined: Medical scrubs that are highly functional, made with technologically advanced materials, that could put a designer tracksuit to shame any day of the week.  Designer Scrubs Exist Designer scrubs do exist, but they are few and far between, and you have to know where to look for them. HINT: Here’s where you will not find designer scrubs: Your local uniform store. Small scrub retailers sell, in addition to doctor and nurse scrubs, all kinds of uniforms for every profession, from police officers to chefs. And because they’re trying to cater to a varied audience, they offer only the basics.
 Nation-wide scrub superstores (with online and physical retail stores) that carry a wide variety of scrub brands. Scrubs & Beyond and Uniform Advantage are some of the larger, better-known ones. Even though they do get points for specializing in healthcare uniforms, they lose points when it comes to carrying brands that have style. They sell old-school versions of scrubs that are made from stiff cotton and look like, as we said before, potato sacks with armholes. These retailers will sometimes will also sprinkle in a handful of “nicer” scrub lines (made by the same brands that also make the cheap cotton scrubs hanging one rack over) but these scrub lines are, to put it bluntly, really just designer scrubs wannabes.
 True designer scrubs are made by only a handful of elite brands, and they are sold online, directly to physicians and other medical professionals. Sure, designer scrubs can be a bit more expensive than average scrubs, but they are well worth it. They simply cannot be beaten when it comes to quality, function, and style. And when you really think about it, if average scrubs last only half as long, then they may end up being more expensive than designer scrubs in the long run. Athletic Designer Scrubs TiScrubs is one of the few scrub brands that can legitimately stake a claim on designer scrubs. TiScrubs was the first designer scrub brand to make medical scrubs with an athletic vibe. Lululemon-like fabrics and breathable mesh accents have been signature hallmarks of our sporty scrubs since the very beginning. Athletically-inspired drawstrings and ultra-soft elastic waistbands rival those of Nike. Even our pockets are designed to be flattering and stylish. TiScrubs’ sporty designer scrubs style is totally unique. Another thing that separates designer scrubs from average scrubs is color. Average scrubs don’t always get the colors just right. Designer scrubs, like TiScrubs, come in colors that were painstakingly selected. TiScrubs’ new Stretch scrubs collection offers navy blue scrubs, black scrubs, and charcoal gray scrubs, and TiScrubs’ thoughtfully-appointed hues have been tested with various skin tones and hair colors to ensure that they look great on everyone. Look and Feel Amazing TiScrubs don’t just look good, they feel good, too. Our scrubs are made with the most technologically advanced fabrics available. TiScrubs’ performance fabrics are smooth and soft, antimicrobial, and moisture-wicking to keep you feeling fresh and dry. Another attribute of designer scrubs is quality, in everything from the fabrics to the stitching. Our needlework is unparalleled, and our fabrics are wrinkle-resistant and won’t shrink, fade, or pill. What’s more, they are resistant to pet hair and snags. TiScrubs are made to last, just like a good designer handbag or sportcoat. Ready to give TiScrubs a try? Shop now!

Designer Scrubs with athletic fit and feel for medical professionals

Meet The Best Stretch Scrubs

Apr 6, 2021

REVIEWS ARE IN “Been searching for a while to find the perfect scrubs for me. Absolutely love these scrubs. The fabric makes me feel like I’m wearing Lululemon.” - Josh D. That’s what our customers are saying about our new Stretch scrubs. Not too shabby! And let’s just say we more than agree that our new Stretch Collection scrubs are the bomdiggity. HOW DO THEY FEEL? If you already wear TiScrubs and think they’re pretty fire as is, we’re about to blow your mind with this news: Our new Stretch Collection scrubs are even better! Knowing that our loyal fans might be upset if we made too many changes, we didn’t go changing everything -- we kept the athletic vibe, great fit, supreme comfiness, and exceptional quality.The biggest change we made was to our fabric. Our new soft and smooth Stretch fabric has just enough  Spandex in it so when you move, it moves. When you go, it goes. When you dip, it dips. (Wasn’t that a song?) What we’re trying to say is that whether you’re squatting down, reaching up, bending over, straddling your chair (dental professionals know just what we mean), or dealing with out-of-control animals and/or crazy patients, you feel completely unrestricted while doing it. We also made our new fabric less shiny than our old fabric. Our new Stretch fabric has more of a matte finish and is very similar to Lululemon’s athletic shorts fabric. If Lululemon were to make scrubs, they’d probably look like our Stretch Collection scrubs. HOW DO THEY FIT? Our Stretch Collection scrub pants fit superbly. The waistband feels like heaven, your arse crack doesn’t show when you bend down to tie your shoes, and the number of pockets is ludicrous. We’re talking nine pockets! Yes, nine pockets for all the things you could imagine. The scrub tops in our Stretch Collection are an updated version of our old scrub tops. We took care of things like your belly showing when you reach up to grab something. You know, opening a cabinet to grab a patient gown, pulling something off the top shelf of the supply cabinet, positioning an operatory light, etc.And we made sure that, like our old fabric, our new Stretch fabric is antimicrobial to keep you smelling fresh, moisture-wicking to keep you dry, and it doesn’t fade or shrink. It’s pretty wrinkle-resistant, and pet hair doesn’t stick too much either. There are lots of things to be excited about here, folks. Lots to love.Here’s a little compare-and-contrast chart in case you’re still not sure what’s what: NEW  Stretch Collection Elements Collection Baller scrubs 👍 👍 Matte appearance 👍 Shiny appearance 👍 97% polyester / 3% Spandex  (aka “stretchy”) 👍 100% polyester 👍 Antimicrobial finish (anti-odor) 👍 👍 Moisture-wicking 👍 👍 Mesh Accents 👍 👍 Available in Regular, Short, and Tall sizes 👍 👍   New to TiScrubs? Where the hell have you been? And what the hell have you been wearing? Shameful! Our new Stretch Collection scrubs are going to have you asking, “What was I thinking?” It’s okay, we forgive you. Just get with the program.

The Dope Scrubs You've Been Looking For

Dec 16, 2020

Got good scrub game? Let us answer that for you: If you’re not wearing our dope scrubs, then quite possibly you don’t. Or maybe you do but, like with shoes, you’re always down for expanding your collection. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride as we explain why our scrubs are super dope. Dope People Wear Our Scrubs The first reason is simple: Some pretty cool people wear them: Dr. Robert Drummond in LA (on Bravo’s Married to Medicine), Dr. Meena Singh of Kansas City (featured on the cover of New York Times) and Dr. Nick Ciardiello in NYC. These people are real customers who found our products all on their own and are super-fans. Real, authentic customers, not paid influencers. Now that’s dope.  Reason number two: Our scrubs are modern in both look and feel. Yeah, other scrub brands say their scrubs are modern, but they’re really not. Take FIGS for example; their main fabric looks and feels old-school, and it doesn’t wash or wear very well according to customer reviews. When you wear TiScrubs, people will stop you in the hallways and ask what you’re wearing because they look so different and, you guessed it, dope. They look this way because of our unique fabric combinations (the secret sauce is our breathable mesh). Plus, our fabric, like all modern athletic-wear fabrics from brands like Nike and Adidas, is both moisture-wicking and antimicrobial. Another thing about TiScrubs that makes them modern is the fact that pet hair slides right off and liquid spills vanish before your very eyes. And caring for your TiScrubs is simple -- just wash in the washer and dry in the dryer. They won’t shrink, fade, pill, or wrinkle! Pretty dope, huh? The Most Comfortable Scrubs Around Third reason: TiScrubs are the most comfortable scrubs around. Some customers tell us they buy our scrubs just to sleep and lounge around in. Now that’s saying something. Fourth reason: We give back to TeamSmile, a non-profit organization that gives underserved kids right here in the US much-needed dental treatment for free. What’s more, these kids get to kick it with professional athletes while their teeth are getting worked on. Whattttt? Teams from the NFL, MLB, NHL, and MLS participate in TeamSmile. Dope Scrub Collaborations Fifth reason: We’ve collaborated with some super dope brands and artists to bring you fresh designs you won’t find anywhere else. We also have officially-licensed NFL Players Association scrubs that feature your favorite players.  If you want to see for yourself just how dope our scrubs are, grab a set and give them a try!

Legit Kansas City Scrubs

Dec 2, 2020

When you shop with us you are shopping local and supporting a Kansas City business. We are a scrub brand (like FIGS or Grey’s Anatomy, only waaaay better) that started right here in Kansas City, just a few blocks from Chicken ‘n Pickle. Yes, we are “online-only”, but don’t let that stop you from giving our scrubs a try. Our shipping is free (when you spend $50 or more) and always fast -- people in the KC metro typically receive their orders the next business day. Returns and exchanges are always free, so you can try on whatever you want conveniently and safely in your own home. And if you don’t love our scrubs (although $10 bucks says you will), you can send them back to us for a full refund, and we’ll pay for the shipping. Scrub Stores? Really? Who wants or has the time to go to the store anymore, especially a scrub store with racks crammed full of boring old scrubs? Scrub Hub, Uniforms and More, Scrubs & Beyond . . . sorry, but they’re just so depressing. From the bad lighting to the overstuffed racks, who the hell wants to shop like that? And their returns and exchanges policies stink -- some only offer store credit, on a plastic gift card no less. UGH. While stores like Scrub Hub and Uniforms and More are somewhat local, Scrubs & Beyond has over 120 stores nationwide. Do you think they really know or care about Kansas City and what kind of scrubs Kansas City nurses and doctors want? No way. That’s why we dominate the scrub scene here in KC -- we have scrub designs that are specific to Kansas City. Local Kansas City artist, Bill P., did the Kansas City skyline -- in his unique graffiti style -- for one of our scrub tops. And we did a collaboration with Charlie Hustle so that you could wear the much-loved, iconic Charlie Hustle KC Heart to work.  Supporting Local Another reason to make us your #1 source for scrubs if you live in Kansas City is that we proudly support a non-profit that also started here in KC, TeamSmile. TeamSmile provides free dental care to underserved kids in our Kansas City community with all our local pro sports teams: Sporting KC, the Royals, and the Kansas City Chiefs. It’s sort of like a dental tailgate where the players come out to Arrowhead Stadium or Kauffman Stadium or Children’s Mercy Park to have fun with the kids while they get their dental work done! We love our hometown and we love our customers here in the metro. KC medical professionals are the best, so we provide them with the best scrubs in Kansas City!

The Ugly Holiday Sweater Scrub Top

Nov 5, 2020

2020 has been pretty sucky so far, and the upcoming holidays are looking like they will be no exception. Covid cases are up around the country, which means we will still be masking, social distancing, and keeping our gatherings to a minimum.  So what does that mean for your work party this year? It means it’s probably not going to happen, which is such a bummer because there’s nothing more entertaining than an evening of cocktails and white elephant surprises with coworkers. Just because work parties aren’t happening doesn't mean you can’t still have a little fun. Donning an ugly holiday sweater is always a good time. But you work in healthcare, you say. No sweaters allowed? No problem. We made the next best thing -- a scrub top that looks just like an ugly holiday sweater.  Yeah, It's a Real Scrub Top Made from our soft and comfortable performance stretch fabric, it looks like a sweater but feels like a t-shirt. Plus, like a classic scrub top, it has a v-neck and chest pocket. It’s also moisture-wicking to keep you cool and dry. No real Ugly Holiday Sweater can promise you that! To make things even sweeter, for the whole month of November, we’re giving you a FREE Ugly Holiday Sweater Scrub Top when you spend $99 or more. Plus, everything on our website is 30% off. See if that doesn’t put some jingle in your bells! Get The Right Fit The Ugly Holiday Sweater Scrub Top is available for both Men and Women.  The Women's Fit has a feminine v-neck that isn't too deep, and the sides taper in slightly at the waist. Side-seam split vents at the bottom of the scrub top ensure that it lays nicely on your hips. The Women's Fit runs a bit on the smaller side, so if you don't want your scrub top to be too fitted, you may want to size up. The Men's Fit has a wide, masculine v-neck and goes straight down at the sides. The cut of this top, as well as the fabric, make this top somewhat fitted, so you may wish to size up for the Men's Fit. Let’s all make 2020 just a bit better and rock The Ugly Holiday Sweater Scrub Top till it’s over.

Da Chicago Scrubs Are Here

Oct 15, 2020

Whether you call Wheaton, Schaumburg, Naperville, or downtown home, Chicago is your city, right? After all, what other major city in the midwest has legit beaches and deep-dish pizza that puts NYC’s pizza to shame? Now, you can show the Windy City some love at work! Patients will love your flare, and co-workers will ask you to give them the shirt off your back -- literally. We teamed up with Chitown Clothing -- maker of dope Chicago-themed apparel found in the city’s hottest boutiques and online -- to bring you scrubs tops with local flavor (topped with giardiniera, of course). THE DESIGNS We designed two Chicago-themed scrub tops with you Chicagoans in mind. The first one features the famous Chicago city flag (available for both Men and Women). We think the Chicago flag is one of the better-looking city flags we’ve come across, so we weren’t “chi” about putting it all over our scrub top. Made from a super-soft, moisture-wicking performance poly, our scrub top looks and feels like it’s made from heather gray t-shirt fabric. The other design is subtle, with its dark heather gray background and a red and white script “Chi” on the pocket (available for both Men and Women). Seriously, this simple design works because it’s subtle and your boss won’t be pissed. And although it looks and feels a lot like a soft, gray t-shirt, it most certainly is not what with its v-neck, chest pocket, and split vents at the sides. It’s a scrub top, dammit! WE ALMOST FORGOT If this is the first time you’re meeting us, hey. TiScrubs are “not your average” medical scrubs -- they have an athletic vibe and feel smooth like butter. You won’t find Chicago medical scrubs anywhere else. Shop and see why our scrubs are all the rage.
