Wearing white coat during hospital rounds has been associated with increased risk of colonization and transmission of resistant pathogens. On the other hand, studies have shown that physicians' attire affects patients' confidence in their physician and the patient-physician relationship.

The objective is to test the hypothesis that not wearing a white coat during physician postpartum rounds impact patient-physician communication scores.
