Bought these shoes to get me through a grueling third year surgical rotation in med school. The first few days they did dig into my heels and cause blisters, but I chalked that up to me wearing too-thin socks. After that, though, they saved my feet. These are the only shoes I've been able to comfortably stand in for 14+ hour shifts. They come with thick, cushioned insoles and their tie-less design makes them easy to slip on/off. Bonus: they can be sent through a washing machine when you inevitably get something gross on them. 10/10, would recommend to any doctor/nurse/PT/student in need.
