For medical practices, clinics and doctors

Holiday ecards for medical practices and clinics

Your patients trust you with their health. A holiday card with your practice's name on it is a warm hello that asks nothing of them. These holiday ecards for medical practices are short animated cards with your logo, colors and words, sent by email to the patients and colleagues on your list.

Made for a practice

A holiday card that looks like your medical practice

Type your practice's website address and the card takes your brand colors and finds your logo. Or drop in a logo file and the colors are read from it. Then every line of text is yours: the greeting, the message, and whether it comes from the doctor, the care team or the whole practice.

The result is a medical practice holiday card that plays like a short film, with music, full screen on a phone. It plays on its own web page, and the email that carries it to your patients is designed for you, with an animated or still graphic of the card. The demo on this page was set up for a family clinic in teal and green; press Make this yours and the studio opens it in those colors, ready for your own logo.

Your practice's brand

Type your practice's website and the card takes your colors and finds your logo.

Ends with a link to book

Your booking page or patient portal, shown when the card finishes, for a patient who wants to take the next step.

Approved by the doctor

Every word is yours

Your patient list stays yours

Send it yourself from your own email platform, and the list never leaves your system.

What to write in a holiday card to patients

Keep it short, warm and about them. A good holiday message to patients thanks them for their trust, wishes them and their families good health for the season, and comes from people they know. Leave out anything about care, treatment or appointments they have had. Start from one of these and change any word.

To patients

"Wishing you and your family a happy and healthy holiday season. From all of us at [practice name]."

"Thank you for trusting us with your care this year. Happy holidays."

From the care team

"Season's greetings from your care team at [practice name]."

"Everyone at [practice name] wishes you a peaceful holiday and a healthy new year."

To referring physicians

"Thank you for your referrals and your trust this year. Warm wishes from all of us at [practice name]."

To your own staff

"To everyone at [practice name]: thank you for the care you gave our patients every day this year. Enjoy the holidays."

Ecard or printed card for your practice?

Printed medical practice holiday cards still look nice on the reception counter. For the whole patient list, holiday ecards for doctors reach further and cost less.

Who should get your practice's holiday card

  • Patients and their families, the heart of your list.
  • Referring physicians and community partners: the specialists, hospitals, pharmacies and local groups you work with.
  • Your own staff: doctors, nurses, assistants and the front desk.

A card holds one message, so many practices make two holiday cards for patients and colleagues: one for patients, one for referring offices or the team. Copy the first card, change the words, and both live in the same account.

A greeting for every patient

Your patients come from every background, so most practices choose Happy Holidays or Season's Greetings. Every word on the card is yours to type, so the same design carries whichever greeting fits your list. The season is hard for some patients, so a calm, kind message usually lands better than a loud one. Some practices send a thank-you at Thanksgiving as well.

Approved by the doctor before you pay

Whoever builds the card, the doctor, the practice administrator or the owner usually wants to see it first. Press Send for approval and pass on the link. It shows the real, finished card with a watermark, has nothing to download, and needs no account, so a doctor can watch it on a phone between patients.

When the card is approved, answer one question at checkout and the clean card is made in about one to two minutes. Nothing is bought until someone says yes.

End the card with a link to book or to your portal

When the card finishes, it shows a row of links you choose. For a medical practice, that is usually the booking page or the patient portal, so a patient who has been meaning to schedule a checkup is one click away. Add your website, your holiday office hours and your social accounts beside it.

The card itself stays a greeting. The link is there for anyone who wants it, which keeps the message warm and the next step easy.

Your patient list stays in your hands

There are two ways to send, at the same price.

  • Send it yourself. We design the email; you send it from Mailchimp, Constant Contact, Outlook or another provider. Your patient list never leaves your own system.
  • We send it. Import your list and every address is checked before the send. Unsubscribes are handled for you, permanently, and you get a report afterward.

Either way, the email is designed and tested to render as widely as possible, and the card's own page sets no cookies on your patients and is kept out of search engines. How each way works · Privacy.

Patient privacy and your holiday card

A holiday card carries one greeting for everyone on your list, so nothing about anyone's health or care belongs on it. Your practice decides who receives it and every word it says. If you are unsure how your privacy policy or your state's rules treat holiday email to patients, check with whoever looks after privacy at your practice before you send.

When to send a medical practice holiday ecard

Early December works for most practices: after Thanksgiving, and before patients and staff leave for the holidays. Send it midweek, when it lands in a quiet inbox rather than a busy weekend. If we send it, you can schedule it ahead of time.

Closed or on reduced hours between Christmas and New Year? Say so in the card, and add your holiday office hours as one of its ending links, so patients know when you are back.
