Our doctors have made a mark for their dexterity and diligence. Equally notable is their spirit of compassion. They are truly protectors of health and pillars of humanity. Their contribution in strengthening India's healthcare infrastructure is indeed exceptional." July 1 is observed as National Doctor's Day to commemorate Bidhan Chandra Roy, a renowned doctor who also served as the West Bengal Chief Minister, and whose birth and death anniversary fall on this day. Dr Roy was in 1961 awarded the Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian honour, in recognition of his outstanding contributions to medicine and public service. This day, established in 1991 by the Government of India to honour him, is also dedicated to honouring the tireless dedication, compassion, and relentless efforts of its medical professionals. Acknowledging the role that the doctors play, PM Modi referred to their contribution in his 123rd episode of his monthly radio programme, 'Mann Ki Baat' on Sunday. He said that on the 1st of July, the country honours two very important professions -- Doctors and Chartered Accountants (CAs). "Both of these are such pillars of society, which make our lives better. Doctors are the protectors of our health, and the CAs are the guides of economic life," the PM said. Last year, PM Modi had said the government was fully committed to improving the healthcare infrastructure in India and also ensuring that doctors get their deserved respect. Union Health Minister also extended his wishes on the day. He said," On National Doctor's Day, I extend my heartfelt greetings to all doctors for their selfless service to humanity. Their round-the-clock dedication brings hope and saves countless lives every single day. In every health emergency, you have stood tall at the frontlines, driven by compassion and an unshakable sense of duty. Your care, courage and sacrifice make you the true heroes of our society." He also expressed his gratitude not just to doctors, but to all healthcare workers, "whose relentless efforts are paving the way towards a Swasth Bharat".

National Doctors Day 2025: Know date, theme, history, wishes, quotes and messages
National Doctors Day 2025: The special day dedicated to all doctors out there is celebrated annually on 1st July in India. It is a great day to thank all the doctors around the world who give their services to the public. It is the day of remembrance of the caring and selfless services provided by the medical professionals to the health and well-being of the nation. The National Doctors Day is observed on 1st July (since 1991) in India to pay tribute to the birth and death anniversary of the great doctor Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy. Dr. Roy, who had also served as the second Chief Minister of the state of West Bengal, is remembered for his contributions to the world of medicine and to the welfare of the public. National Doctors Day commemorates the pivotal role of physicians in society. From the delivery of routine medical services to the management of emergencies, physicians are the pillar of the medical delivery system. Even the COVID-19 pandemic has established the irreplaceability of physicians, which has brought out the bravery and commitment of physicians despite the unprecedented threats. The National Doctors Day is also the day to thank the medical profession by the public. It is the day to recognise the sacrifices of the doctors, generally to the disregard of the physical well-being of the physicians, for the benefit of the well-being and protection of the public. It is the day for the public to cherish and promote the medical profession and to ask for upgraded facilities and working conditions for the healthcare providers. National Doctors Day theme 2025 Each year, Doctors Day theme is something specific to the field of healthcare, which centres on the role of physicians in finding solutions to the problems of the present. Even though the theme of National Doctors Day in India 2025 is to be officially announced, the past themes have centred on extremely important themes such as: Doctor-Patient Relationship: Building trust and empathy in the delivery of healthcare. Improving Awareness of Health: Ask medical practitioners to keep abreast in the field of healthcare developments and to encourage preventive medicine. Support for Healthcare Workers: Taking care of the physical and mental well-being of physicians, particularly in the wake of the unprecedented pressure of the pandemic of COVID-19. For the year 2025, the theme would be the then-dominant healthcare situation of the world, either taking in the impact of future health concerns or the requirement for mental health and well-being in healthcare. Happy National Doctors Day wishes, messages and quotes to share The best way to observe National Doctor's Day is by expressing gratitude to the doctors for their selfless service. To help you do just that, we've compiled a list of wishes, quotes, and images to share on this significant day. 'Happy National Doctors Day! Today, we pause to honour not just your profession, but your passion, your resilience, and your selfless service. In every diagnosis, every procedure, and every comforting word, you embody compassion and commitment. Thank you for being the beacon of hope and healing in times both ordinary and extraordinary.' "The good physician treats the disease; the great physician treats the patient who has the disease." – William Osler 'On this National Doctors Day, we pay heartfelt tribute to the doctors who stand at the frontline of human vulnerability. Your hands heal, your presence reassures, and your knowledge saves. May your noble work always be respected, and may society continue to support the guardians of our health.' 'To all the doctors who sacrifice sleep, family time, and their own well-being for the sake of others—thank you. National Doctors Day is a small reminder of your immense contribution to the well-being of our society. Your strength lies not just in medicine, but in your empathy, integrity, and humanity.' "Doctors are always working to preserve our health and cooks to destroy it, but the latter are the more often successful." – Denis Diderot 'Doctors are the silent sentinels of society—working tirelessly through the night, responding to cries for help, and offering hope where despair looms. This Doctors Day, let us honour your courage and thank you for holding humanity together in its most fragile moments.' "The art of healing comes from nature, not from the physician. Therefore, the physician must start from nature, with an open mind." – Paracelsus 'Wishing you a meaningful National Doctors Day.

May your journey be blessed with strength, purpose, and deep fulfilment.' 'To every doctor who has ever offered a listening ear, a steady hand, or a glimmer of hope—we see you, we thank you. This National Doctors Day, may you feel the appreciation of a grateful nation, and know that your work leaves a lasting legacy of love and healing.'
