The Invention of Dr. Grip Writing Instruments

Based on a common need for a more comfortable writing instrument, Pilot set out to give people the writing solution they were looking for. In 1995, Pilot launched Dr. Grip, a pen and mechanical pencil collection designed to provide superior writing comfort and be the solution to that demand. By 1996, the entire Dr. Grip line earned the Ease-of-Use Commendation by the Arthritis Foundation. More recently in 2012, a three-month study conducted by the Georgia Tech Research Institute found Dr. Grip Center of Gravity (COG) surpassed key competitors in overall comfort ratings for users both with and without arthritis. In the study, Dr. Grip COG was proven to be almost 2X more comfortable than key competitor brands*.

Dr. Grip is Offered in an Array of Point Types and Barrel Colors

Dr. Grip's classic line has been enhanced over the years with the introduction of a wide variety of barrel colors and styles. The collection includes both fashion-forward and professional styles for a variety of writing needs and occasions. Dr. Grip is available in barrel colors that range from fun neon colors, to sophisticated metallic hues, to professional blue, black, and silver. In addition, Dr. Grip is offered in a variety of point types including Medium 1.0 mm ball point ink, Fine 0.7 mm gel ink, and #2 HB mechanical pencil lead. Every Dr. Grip pen and mechanical pencil is retractable and refillable for continued use and lasting value.

Introducing the Dr. Grip 4+1 Multi-function Writing Instrument

The newest addition to the Dr. Grip Collection is a writing instrument that serves as both pen AND pencil. In fact, the Dr. Grip 4+1 is 5 different writing options in one! Designed for getting complex jobs done with incredible precision, the Dr. Grip 4+1 has retractable Black, Blue, Red and Green advanced ink, as well as Mechanical Pencil lead. Dr. Grip 4+1 is perfect for anyone who needs--or just simply enjoys--different writing options for editing, organizing, and more. Dr. Grip is the ultimate all-in-one writing instrument.

Best pen for pharmacist to transcribe scripts!
4 Stars
Best pen for pharmacist to transcribe scripts!
I work at a very busy pharmacy. With that said, we get tons of verbal telephone order from MD office as well as scripts on voicemail. I dislike the cheap generic pens that we have. Writing fatigue is a real issue when you have to write to the speed of someone reading doctor's order at lighting pace. The Pilot Dr. Grip is the best pen that I've used, aside from the G2 Pro which is also a Pilot pen. Trust me, I have been through countless different brands until I ended up with this one.It is a very beautiful and professional looking pen. In fact, my co-workers always seem to try to steal it from me! I love the size and soft grip which makes it easy to handle. The cheap pens are too skinny in my opinion to give optimal comfort when writing. The pen's weight is just right: it's not too light nor too heavy. Depending how often you use this pen, it may last you a year or a couple years. I tend to use this everyday that I'm working (roughly 10 hours days) and I had to replace this pen twice in the 2 years. The pocket clip is not as sturdy as I would like. It can be broken fairly easily if you're not careful.The best feature is the ink refills that you can buy to make this pen last. The refills are sold on Amazon at a very reasonable price. I buy a bulk order and it last for months. I normally rotate between the black and blue refills. Despite some cons, as a pharmacist, I highly recommend this pen.7/2019 - > 2 years later, I'm still a huge fan. It's all about the refills.
