In a 2015 Harris poll, $ over 71% of parents thought tats were ok for pediatricians, 51% of millennials approved for any doctor, but only 35% of all adults felt comfortable with tattoos.  

 

In a Hawaiian study the same year, more than half of the respondents expressed less confidence in doctors with tats or piercings. 

 

 A 2018 study of more than 900 emergency room patients suggested that patient confidence was unaffected by tattoos.  

 

A November 2019 Medscape poll of doc, nurses, and pharmacists showed a 60% approval of tats.
