Hi everyone!
How are you doing today?
Have you ever felt nervous at the doctor’s office and noticed your blood pressure reading was unusually high? This phenomenon is called white coat hypertension (or white coat syndrome), where a person's blood pressure spikes in medical settings, often due to anxiety or stress from being around doctors or healthcare environments.
