On Monday, July 1, 2024, India will celebrate National Doctor’s Day to honor the birth and death anniversary of Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, a distinguished physician, freedom fighter, and former Chief Minister of West Bengal. Dr. Roy was instrumental in establishing prestigious medical institutions like the Indian Medical Association and the Medical Council of India. His contributions to the medical field were recognized with the Bharat Ratna, India`s highest civilian award.
This year’s theme, "Healing Hands, Caring Hearts," underscores the dedication, compassion, and empathy doctors bring to their practice. National Doctor’s Day, officially designated on July 1st since 1991, highlights the vital role of doctors in healthcare and recognizes their invaluable contributions to society.
Join us in celebrating the professionalism, humanitarian values, and tireless efforts of doctors in promoting public health and saving lives.
