Celebrate National Doctors Day
The Indian Medical Association celebrates July 1 as National Doctor’s Day. It’s a tribute to former chief minister of Bengal, Dr BC Roy, who was born on this day. Not only was he a highly respected doctor, but was also instrumental in establishing numerous medical institutions including Jadavpur’s TB Hospital, Kamala Nehru Memorial Hospital (Uttar Pradesh), Chittaranjan Cancer Hospital, and Victoria Institution (College) in Kolkata. This year, the day is themed on “Family Doctors on the Front Line”. Celebrate the day by sending a card or a note of appreciation to your family doctor, or to those medical professionals who have saved the lives of your loved ones and been there with you through the journey. Send cake or flowers perhaps, to acknowledge their unfailing dedication to make our lives better.
