Abstract: A shift-type strapless examining robe designed to give a female patient a sorely needed psychological lift during the physical examination. The upper portion of the robe is provided with elongated openings of different lengths at the front and back thereof to afford the physician ready access to the parts of the body requiring examination. Also the lower portion is flared extensively and includes a pair of pleats at the front of the robe adjacent to the bottom thereof which forms a continuous bottom section without any openings functioning as a tent-like covering during the pelvic examination, without need for any separate additional covering sheets.
