where do you buy scrubs?

#1 I work in a small clinic in the billing department.  We are allowed to wear scrubs even if non-clinical (i.e. one of our receptionists wears scrubs every day, as well as a few others in our office).  When I mentioned to DH that I wanted to wear scrubs- he laughed at me beause I'm not a nurse, etc!

I think it'd be great to have the option to wear scrubs (maybe just once a week even)- to mix things up since I'm tired of my wardrobe, wear tennis shoes and be comfy :)

How do you feel about nonclinical staff wearing scrubs?

#2  WHERE to buy in Des Moines?  Which store is better?

Re: where do you buy scrubs?

  • I don't wear them, but I think there is a store in MerlHayMall... Or is there something called Valley West Uniforms?

    I want to say Target or Walmart also has them.

  • There is a place in Merle Hay Mall. I am also looking to sell some of my scrubs, I have TONS! Mostly size small Greys Anatomy sets. Let me know if your interested.
  • Valley West Uniforms has a wide selection though they can be a little pricey. I usually shop their sale rack and have found some good deals that way for cute scrubs.

  • I go to Valley West Uniforms sometimes.  There is a new scrubs place up in Ankeny next to Old Chicago that some girls from work rave about.  I have yet to stop in so I dont know about pricing/selection from personal experience.  Just have heard a couple gals talking about it.

    These are the two places I go. The new one in Ankeny seems to have better prices but less selection, Valley West is pretty pricey but has tons. I will order online a lot of times, its usually much cheaper. Places like Tafford or Marcus Uniforms are good.
