A computing system for displaying patient data in augmented reality (AR) is disclosed herein. An AR computing device worn by a healthcare worker captures an image indicative of a patient by way of a camera comprised by the AR computing device. The AR computing device transmits the image to an electronic health records application (EHR) executing on a server computing device. The EHR retrieves patient data for the patient responsive to identifying the patient based upon the image. Responsive to receiving the patient data from the EHR, the AR computing device presents the patient data on an AR display comprised by the AR computing device. The patient data is overlaid on the AR display with a view of surroundings of the healthcare worker as perceived by the healthcare worker through the AR display.
