When it comes to office supplies, I am extremely picky (I guess it’s the type A in me hehe). If you work in healthcare, then you already know how important a GOOD pen is! I have experimented with SO many pens throughout my academic and professional career, and none of them compare to my favorite: the Zebra STEEL G-402® Gel Retractable Pen!


As a physical therapy student out on my last clinical rotation, the STEEL G-402® Gel Retractable Pen is exactly what I need to review my patients’ charts in the morning, jot down notes and things I want to look up later, and ensure that my documentation accurately reflects my treatment sessions! Being a student means being prepared for whatever your clinical instructor (or your patient, a tiny human in my case) throws at you, and my STEEL G-402 helps me stay organized and ready to tackle whatever comes my way! It is even refillable, so I don’t have to worry about purchasing an entirely new pen when my ink runs out!
I’m very particular about my pens (as most healthcare professionals are), so the STEEL G-402 is perfect for me: the easy glide gel ink and fine point (0.5mm) make documentation a breeze. My hands are one of my biggest tools as a (student) physical therapist, and the STEEL G-402’s comfort rubberized grip saves my fingers from blisters and calluses.


As most of you know, my current clinical rotation is in inpatient pediatrics, so sometimes my days can be pretty unpredictable; my STEEL G-402 is durable enough to survive the hands of a sneaky toddler, AND the metal barrel is easy to wipe down and sanitize after a long shift!
I’m such a sucker for an affordable black gel pen—and the STEEL G-402 is just that and more! I love that it is stylish and sleek, providing me with a high-quality writing experience whether I’m quickly planning out a treatment session or noting my patient’s favorite sport.
Why settle for any old pen when you can stand out and Choose Different! With my STEEL G-402, I have the confidence and motivation to achieve my personal AND professional goals. Check out more information here to see how you too can Choose Different!
Pro tip: Keep your pens in your scrub pockets so your coworkers (or the kiddos you work with in my case!) don’t steal them 😉
