A white coat portrait with clean light says clinical and available before they reach the bio. - **Hospital directory:** Health system directories crop hard and print small. A tight, evenly lit headshot survives the crop and reads clearly on a phone. - **Healthgrades and Zocdoc:** Profiles on review platforms sit next to competing doctors. A warm, direct portrait gives patients a reason to click yours. - **Telehealth apps:** Virtual visit platforms show your photo before the video connects. A friendly, well-lit face sets the tone for the appointment. - **Conference bios and grand rounds:** Speaker slides, program booklets and department newsletters need a headshot that holds up in print and on a stage screen. - **Residency and fellowship applications:** Residency portals, match profiles and nursing program applications ask for a current headshot. A white coat or scrubs portrait against a clean background is what the reviewers expect to see. - **Publications and press:** Journal author pages, hospital press releases and local news interviews ask for a headshot on short notice. Keep one ready. ## Outfits - **White coat over shirt and tie:** The classic attending physician portrait. Best for practice websites and hospital leadership pages. - **White coat over navy scrubs:** Signals a clinician who is in the OR or on the floor. Reads well for surgeons and hospitalists. - **Teal scrubs, no coat:** Approachable and hands-on. A strong choice for nurses, dental teams and telehealth profiles. - **White coat with stethoscope:** The most recognizable doctor image there is. Patients identify it instantly on a directory. - **Soft blue shirt, no coat:** Warm and conversational. Suits psychiatrists, pediatricians and anyone who wants less clinical distance. - **White coat over blouse:** A tailored, professional look for physicians and dentists who want the coat without the tie. ## Backdrops - **Clean clinic neutral:** A quiet, even background that lets the coat and the face do the work. The safest pick for directories. - **Hospital corridor bokeh:** Places you in a real hospital setting without distracting detail. Good for health system profiles. - **Daylight exam room:** Soft natural light and a familiar setting. Feels like the room a patient will actually sit in. - **Pale blue studio:** A cool, clean studio tone that pairs with white coats and scrubs and prints well. - **Practice reception blur:** Warm front desk tones behind you. Suits private practices and dental offices. - **Warm white wall:** Bright and friendly with no institutional feel. Works for telehealth and pediatric practices. ## Advice for doctors, nurses and nurse practitioners - **Wear what you wear on a clinic day:** If you see patients in a white coat, wear the coat. If you work in scrubs, scrubs are honest and patients read them as competence. Matching your real wardrobe means the photo matches the person who walks in. - **Keep the light clean and even:** Clinical portraits use soft, front-facing fill light rather than moody shadow. Even light on the face reads as clarity and health, which is exactly what a patient is looking for. - **Choose a warm, closed-mouth or soft smile:** A slight smile with direct eye contact outperforms a broad grin for most specialties. It signals warmth while keeping the calm patients want from someone about to give them news. - **Keep the background quiet:** A clinic neutral or a blurred corridor supports the portrait without competing with it. Busy exam room detail pulls the eye away from your face. - **Match your team:** If your practice site shows six clinicians, choose the same backdrop and similar framing for each. A consistent team page looks organized, and organized reads as safe. ## How it works - Choose a profession pack. - Upload 8 to 15 recent photos of yourself. - Select a pricing plan and pay once, with no subscription. - Receive the completed gallery within the selected plan's turnaround. ## Pricing - **Starter:** $29 for 40 headshots, delivered in 2 hours. - **Professional:** $39 for 60 headshots, delivered in 1 hour. - **Executive:** $59 for 100 headshots, delivered in 30-45 minutes.

It is the fastest trust signal a physician photo can send and it is what patients expect on a practice website or hospital directory. If you work in scrubs or your specialty leans conversational, such as psychiatry or pediatrics, scrubs or a soft blue shirt can feel more honest. This pack includes coat, scrubs and shirt options so you can use different looks in different places. ### What should a nurse wear for a headshot? Wear the uniform your unit or practice actually uses. Teal scrubs with no coat is the most honest look for floor nurses and dental teams, a white coat over scrubs or a blouse suits nurse practitioners and charge nurses, and a soft blue shirt works for telehealth and administrative roles. Keep badges, lanyards and pens out of the frame, because they date the photo and clutter a small directory thumbnail. ### What background is best for physician headshots? A clean clinic neutral or a softly blurred hospital corridor. Both put you in a recognizable medical setting without pulling attention from your face, and both crop well on directories that display a small square. Avoid busy exam rooms with visible equipment and avoid outdoor backdrops that read as lifestyle rather than clinical. ### How many doctor headshots do I get? The doctor pack produces 80 headshots per session. Starter delivers 40 of them, Professional 60 and Executive 100, spread across the outfits and backdrops you select. Each one is a 4:5 PNG. ### Can I use AI doctor headshots on Healthgrades, Zocdoc and my hospital directory? Yes. You own full commercial rights to every headshot and can use them on Healthgrades, Zocdoc, Vitals, your practice website, hospital directories, telehealth apps and conference materials. Check each platform's photo dimension guidelines; the 4:5 portrait crops cleanly to a square. ### Is it okay to use AI for headshots? Yes, when the portrait is your own likeness. The model is trained only on the photos you upload, so your face, skin tone and features are yours and only the coat, background and lighting are generated. You own full commercial rights, and every delivered PNG carries embedded metadata declaring it as AI generated. Two things matter in healthcare: pick a result that matches how you look in clinic, and wear only credentials you hold, because a coat or a setting that implies a role you do not have would mislead patients. ### Will the headshots look like me, or like a generic doctor? They look like you. A private model is trained only on your uploaded photos, so your face, skin tone and features carry through. Only the outfit, background and lighting are generated. If a batch misses, Professional and Executive include one free re-run, and every plan is refundable within 7 days of delivery. ### Can I get headshots with and without glasses? Yes. Clear or prescription glasses are fine in your uploads and the model reproduces them. If you want both versions, include photos with and without glasses in the set you upload. Sunglasses are the one thing to leave out, because the model needs to see your eyes. ### How long do physician headshots take? About 1 hour on Professional. Starter can take up to 2 hours at peak times, and Executive is prioritized at roughly 30-45 minutes. Upload before a clinic block and the headshots are usually ready by the time it ends. ### What happens to the photos I upload? Your uploaded photos are deleted 7 days after delivery, and you can delete them earlier from your dashboard. They train your private model only. Nothing is used to train shared models and nothing is sold. ## Links - [Start the Doctor & Nurse Headshots pack](https://www.smartheadshots.ai/start?pack=doctor) - [Home](https://www.smartheadshots.ai/) - [Refund policy](https://www.smartheadshots.ai/refund)
