Celebrate International Doctor’s Day!
Today is dedicated to honoring physicians for making a positive difference in the lives of the patients and families they serve every day. We thank you for your hard work and dedication.
The holiday was established in 1933 in Winder, Georgia, and... has been observed every year on March 30 since then, commemorating the first anniversary of a doctor using ether anesthesia Dr. Crawford W. Long. Today, we continue to celebrate advances in medicine like these and thank all doctors around the world who have dedicated so much time and energy to mastering their field of expertise.
HISTORY OF DOCTOR'S DAY
Doctor’s Day was first observed on March 30, 1933, in Winder, Georgia. Eudora Brown Almond, the wife of a prominent Georgian doctor, wanted to create a day solely dedicated to recognizing and honoring doctors; she decided that the best way to do so would be to mail greeting cards to all of the doctors she knew and to place flowers on the graves of deceased physicians. She placed red carnations on the graves of these doctors, a flower that is still used for National Doctor’s Day celebrations today.
Mrs. Almond chose March 30th as the date for Doctor’s Day because it was on that date in 1842 that Dr. Crawford W. Long first used an ether anesthetic during surgery. Doctor’s Day did not become a national holiday until 1991 when Congress passed Proclamation 6253.
Doctors’ Day was celebrated unofficially for many years before it became a legal holiday. The United States House of Representatives passed a resolution commemorating Doctors’ Day on March 30, 1958, and George W. Bush signed the legislation on October 30, 1990, after it was approved by both the House and the Senate.
