India celebrates National Doctors' Day on July 1 every year, in
memory of the birth and death anniversary of Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, the great physician and the second
Chief Minister of West Bengal.
We turn to doctors to save our lives.
Saving someone’s life is always gratifying. This noble profession is unique in
many ways. A doctor puts all his efforts to make people’s life
better, healthy and secure.
Furthermore, it's not easy to be a
qualified and specialized doctor. A doctor spends around 10 years (after grade
XII) including Junior and Senior residency. While most other professionals find
some leisure time, doctors are either busy enhancing their skills or serving in
hospitals.
A
regular day of a doctor may not end before 10-12 hours of continuous and
nerve-racking work. Not to mention the working weekends in many clinics and
hospitals and yes, let's not forget this unending duration of the Pandemic.
Why do doctors really continue doing what
they do in spite of having such frenetic schedules and with no work-life
balance?
The answer is quite simple—they are very
emotional and they understand the importance of life. Most of them want to make
a difference in the lives of their patients.
Although our country has crossed the
golden finishing line, it still requires many well learned and skilled doctors.
On National Doctors' Day, I pay my sincere gratitude to all the 'Doctors' who do not dream to live a lavish life but choose the life of Humanity.
