Business cards for doctors' offices and medical specialists

Patients judge a physician's office by small things, and the card handed over at check-out is one of them. A medical business card should read as calm and exact: the doctor's name and specialty first, then everything a patient needs to call, find or book the office.

These cards suit family medicine and primary care offices, specialists such as cardiology, dermatology, orthopedics, pediatrics, OB-GYN and ENT, surgical practices, and the physicians, physician assistants and nurse practitioners who work in them.

What to put on a medical business card

  • Physician name with degree (MD, DO) and board specialty
  • Office or group name and logo
  • Office phone and fax, and a referral line if you take referrals
  • Street address and suite, with parking or entrance notes on the back if the building is hard to find
  • Website or patient portal, or a QR code to online booking
  • A next-appointment box on the back for front desk staff

Design tips for physicians

  • Lead with the name and specialty. Patients keep the card to remember who they saw.
  • Use one accent color from your office branding rather than several.
  • If referring doctors use the card, put the referral fax or line on the front.

Questions before you order

Can we use the same design for every physician in the group?

Yes. Keep one layout and change the name, degree and specialty for each doctor. A business plan makes reordering for a group simple.

Should I print appointment reminders on the back?

If your front desk hands out cards at check-out, yes. Choose Matte / Uncoated so the time can be written in pen.

What size are these cards?

The standard US size is 3.5 x 2 inches, and other sizes are available in the size picker above.

Do I see a proof first?

Yes. You approve a proof before anything prints.
