National Doctors’ Day 2020

National Doctors’ Day is Global

[By staff reporters]

National Doctors’ Day is a day celebrated to recognize the contributions of physicians to individual lives and communities. The date may vary from nation to nation depending on the event of commemoration used to mark the day.

In some nations the day is marked as a holiday. Although supposed to be celebrated by patients in and benefactors of the healthcare industry it is usually celebrated by health care organizations. Staff may organize a lunch for doctors to present the physicians with tokens of recognition. Historically, a card or red carnation may be sent to physicians and their spouses, along with a flower being placed on the graves of deceased physicians.

Celebrating National Doctors’ Day 2018

History of National Doctors’ Day

By Dr. David E. Marcinko MBA CMP™

National Doctors’ Day is held every year on March 30th – April 1st –  in the United States. It is a day to celebrate the contribution of physicians who serve our country by caring for its’ citizens.

The first Doctor’s Day observance was March 30, 1933 in Winder, Georgia.  Eudora Brown Almond, wife of Dr. Charles B. Almond, decided to set aside a day to honor physicians. This first observance included the mailing greeting cards and placing flowers on graves of deceased doctors.

  • On March 30, 1958, a Resolution Commemorating Doctors’ Day was adopted by the United States House of Representatives.
  • In 1990, legislation was introduced in the House and Senate to establish a national Doctor’s Day.

Following overwhelming approval by the United States Senate and the House of Representatives, on October 30, 1990, President George Bush signed S.J. RES. #366 (which became Public Law 101-473) designating March 30th as “National Doctor’s Day.”
