I love the med bracelets from Laurenshope.com They are made out of Swarovski Crystals,glass beads, pearls, leather braid, and more. They even make ankle braclets. The tag is interchangeable. I have them in quite a few different styles and I highly recommend them. They have also been featured in People Mag and I think on Oprah. Enjoy! Heather "I can be changed by what happens to me.

I agree, Laurens Hope has some nice ones, but I got some really nice hand-made beaded medical ID bracelets and interchangeable IDs at N-Style.com. Their prices are really reasonable and best of all my 13-year old daughter loves hers. Imagine that.

Just an added thought...if possible, medical alert jewelry with your name on it is ideal. When I went to the emergeny room in September(unconscious) I remained a "Jane Doe" for hours until my boyfriend, room mate and hospital staff figured out who I was. I have my name engraved on the front of my bracelet, but my sz's were so bad all my jewelry had been removed in preparation for an emergency MRI, and my wallet with all my ID had been mistakingly left in my desk at work. When I came-to I had enough sense to tell the nurses to look on my bracelet for my name. Susan
