May 1 is National Physicians’ Day in Canada, an opportunity to recognize the extraordinary people who choose to serve as medical professionals.
Physicians care for people when they are sick and help them stay healthy.
May 1 was chosen as National Physicians’ Day to honour the birthday of the first woman to practice medicine in Canada and a founder of Canada’s women’s movement, Dr. Emily Stowe.
