Modesty Gown
Patented by surgeon Vincent Delumpa, MD to provide easy access to the abdomen while maintaining patient privacy and dignity.
The Slit provides Convenient and Dignified Access to the Abdomen for Easy Examination
I have been a general surgeon for over 25 years. Over the years I’ve done countless abdominal exams in the office and in hospitals. I have found it awkward for me to examine the patient's abdomen by lifting the gown and exposing their private areas. This can be especially embarrassing when friends or family are in the room. With this in mind, I developed a hospital gown with a PATENTED easy-access opening to allow for the examination of the abdomen and groin. I strongly believe this gown should be in every hospital and office to maintain the patient’s privacy. I’m therefore proud to introduce this state-of-the-art gown as part of an enhanced patient experience.
I call it the MODESTY GOWN.
