I own two of these, and I'm an internist/hospitalist. Happy to answer any specific questions anyone has about this. In short, I would definitely recommend it. Great high-quality pen light.
It is worth mentioning that I had a problem with my first unit, and the company promptly replaced it; very happy with their customer service.

A physician’s light should have a neutral color temperature around 4000k so that the color of the skin or lesion is accurate. Anything too warm or cool can throw off the color of what is being examined.
The first click should also start with the lowest setting of around 2 lumens to check for ocular reflexes, then medium to illuminate the pharynx and nares, then finally high for practical illumination.
The pen should be thin and lightweight to carry in the breast pocket of the lab coat, which will already be laden with several pens. Medical markings on the pen are useful such as the pupil sizes and ruler. It should be water resistant with smooth surfaces in the body design to allow for effective cleaning.
My preference is to have the light powered by 2xAAA batteries rather than lithium because they won’t require frequent charging and is less likely to self-discharge if left unused for a while.

Ooh. Appears to have the aspheric lens of the cheaper K3S, so 2 lumens should throw nicely and you get higher modes! My main gripe with the K3S is the pocket clip, so this one is probably quite good by comparison.

Not a doctor, but RN. I have 2 of these and am ordering this one because of the rechargeable battery. I keep one in my first aid kits. Excellent light for a good price. Must have for medical exams. Great for EMTs, nurses or lay person who is learning skills for self and family medical care.

I guess not many Doctors use Drop? Only Kidding. It would be nice to see some comments or reviews from actual Doctors that would use this. It would make a nice gift for one's Doctor; or for a young Doctor while still studying, or after graduation. Never heard the need for a yellow light. Curious what CRI the white led is. Would have thought that a high CRI light would be great for a Doctor...

Agreed to that, as a RN, i carried my EDC such as tactile turn side click and my nitecore pen light, it drives me crazy when i misplace it in the mid of shift... but nonetheless i enjoy using them in the field...

CactusPeteI'm a hospitalist. I own two of these, purchased off Amazon. I would've gotten in on this Drop if I had seen it. I love being able to rapidly switch between blast-your-eyes-out brightness to a warmer, softer light for eye exams. I also absolutely loathe anything in 2021 that is rechargeable through means other than USB-C. Great product, would definitely recommend.
