How the doctor is built

Health worker is a sequence: a person, a zero width joiner and ⚕️, the Medical symbol. 👨‍⚕️ and 👩‍⚕️ start from a man and a woman, and all three take the five skin tones. The seven things are 🩺 Stethoscope, 🥼 Lab coat, 🏥 Hospital, 🩻 X-ray, 😷 Face with medical mask, 💊 Pill and 💉 Syringe.

Doctor symbols

⚕ is the plain one. Unicode names it Staff of Aesculapius, and by Wikipedia that snake on a rod is the predominant symbol for medicine; ☤, the caduceus, has a pair of wings and two snakes and is sometimes misused for it. The word doctor is Latin for teacher, by Wiktionary.

Questions and answers

Is there a nurse emoji?

Not a separate one. CLDR files the same three health workers under doctor, nurse, therapist and healthcare, and no other emoji under any of the last three, so the nurse and the doctor are one tile.

Is there a doctor emoticon made of text?

No standard one, so this page types its own with plain keys: (^_^)=o is a doctor holding out a stethoscope, and :-)=o is the same thing as a doctor smiley emoticon, turned on its side.

What is the Alt code for the doctor sign?

⚕ is U+2695. By Wikipedia some apps take Alt+9877 on the number pad, and some turn 2695 into ⚕ when Alt+X follows it. Code page 437, which the old Alt codes follow, has no medical sign.
