If you have to ask.....
If I were being examined by a physician with wrist tattoo, I would notice it. If it was lettering, I would not be able to resist trying to read it then would feel self-conscious if I felt like I was staring. If the tattoo was something like a colorful butterfly, I might think the doctor was an airhead and question his/her judgement. If the tattoo was complicated intertwined lettering or long phrase that took a few moments to read, I might wonder if the physician had once been in a gang. Either way, the tattoo would be a distraction from the exam. However, I'm a suburban mom who is not crazy about tattoos. There are probably other patient populations (and other suburban moms) who might not be bothered by a tattoo or find it noteworthy.
