Physician and Medical Professional Portrait Sessions 

Physicians and select non-physician medical professionals are encouraged to complete their "Find a Doctor" profile on nm.org by participating in a portrait session. 

A professional photographer will take photos for your "Find a Doctor" profile. Your photo may also be used for other Northwestern Medicine marketing purposes. You will be asked to sign a media release that explains potential uses.

If you are affiliated with Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, your photo will be shared so it can be posted on the faculty directory. It will also be shared with you to use in NM presentations, department pages and speaking engagements. 

For questions, contact Katie King, marketing specialist, at kathleen.king3@nm.org.​​​
