In patients, white coat hypertension is an abnormally high blood pressure reading due to anxiety from seeing someone in a white coat (i.e. a health care professional). In health care professionals, white coat hypertension is an abnormally high but expected blood pressure due to putting on a white coat, thus signaling that yet another sh*tty workday is about to start.
