The origins of Doctor’s Day can be traced back to different countries, each with its own story. In India, Doctor’s Day is celebrated on July 1 in honor of Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, an eminent physician and the second Chief Minister of West Bengal. Dr. Roy was born on July 1, 1882, and passed away on the same date in 1962. His contributions to the field of medicine and his service to the nation are commemorated on this day.

In the United States, National Doctor’s Day is observed on March 30, marking the anniversary of the first use of general anesthesia in surgery by Dr. Crawford W. Long in 1842.
