Medical practice signs should match your practice’s letterheads, prescription pads and appointment cards. Boldmedia Print Zimbabwe prints practice signs and door plates in your brand. We can print the practice stationery at the same time.
Medical practice signs identify doctors’ rooms, specialists, dentists and allied health practices, both outside the building and at the practice door. They typically show the practitioner names, qualifications or speciality, contact details and consulting hours, and include practice signage inside such as reception and room signs.
A good practice sign is dignified and accurate, with names and details exactly as the practitioner wants them presented, and materials that keep looking professional for years. Compared with a general clinic sign, a practice sign is more personal and often more traditional in style, such as an engraved or brushed metal name plate at the door, combined with a directory listing in a shared medical building.

Supplying measurements
Measure the space beside the door or on the wall, and note any existing plate positions or fixing holes. For building directories, send a photo and the size of the insert slots.
Artwork requirements
Send the exact wording for each name, qualification and speciality, and your logo if you have one. Every detail is checked on a proof, as accuracy is especially important on practitioner signs.
Survey and installation
Door plates and small signs are fixed with screws, standoffs or high-bond tape and can be installed with little disruption. Exterior signs on shared buildings may need landlord approval.
Maintenance
Clean metal plates with a soft cloth and a cleaner suited to the metal; avoid abrasives on brushed finishes. Order updated plates or strips when practitioners join or leave.
