A few statements about the profession of a doctor of people who left medicine for writing

Anton Chekhov

1. No specialty sometimes brings as many moral experiences as a medical one.

2. The profession of a doctor is a feat. It requires selflessness, purity of spirit and purity of thoughts.

Vikenty Veresaev

A doctor may have an enormous talent, be able to capture the most subtle details of his appointments, and all this remains fruitless if he does not have the ability to conquer and subjugate the soul of the patient.

The doctor is not only an ancient profession, but also one of the most useful that is possible today. Mine professional holiday doctors have found relatively recently.

The meaning of the holiday

All those who are related to medicine have every right to consider this day their own. Scientists, chemists, laboratory assistants, biologists, diagnosticians and orderlies, absolutely everyone is directly related to him.




The significance of the holiday, as a purely professional one, goes far beyond the scope, because not a single person can remain indifferent to it. There is no better opportunity to express my sincere love and gratitude to people who are completely devoted to their professional duty, restoring their health to millions of people.

Holiday traditions

One of the traditions is honoring honored medical workers with awards. Health workers who have given their strength and knowledge for 20 years or more are celebrated separately and are awarded one of two titles: "Honored Doctor" or "Honored Health Worker of the Russian Federation." Since 2013, the "Recognition" award began to exist, which is awarded on this very day to high-class and selfless doctors of the Russian Federation.

On this significant day for medicine, students of medical universities are also not forgotten. Parties are organized for them in clubs, trips to nature with thematic directions. Also, numerous master classes and symposiums in various specializations are held throughout Russia. In a narrow circle of polyclinics, the administration awards honored workers with cash prizes.

Holiday traditions

For many, Medical Day is not just a holiday, it is equated to a day of solidarity, when every person tries to express his respect and respect to medical workers. And it doesn't matter if it's a doctor or an ordinary nurse - they work together for the benefit of our health. There are really few real doctors (from God), but they do exist. And if not for them, our world would not become more beautiful and healthier. In each medical institution, on the third Sunday of June, solemn meetings are held, where especially distinguished employees are awarded. After that, everyone goes to a festive banquet. On the part of the state, each medical worker is allocated a cash bonus, the amount of which is established at the state level. Thanks to this professional celebration in 2017, we emphasize the importance of the daily, painstaking and much-needed work of doctors and medical workers. People try to congratulate everyone who decided to join such a responsible, and at the same time, such an important cause as saving human shares and lives. Despite many difficulties and obstacles, every day our doctors try to conduct their work responsibly. Many of them win the recognition of citizens with their disinterestedness, professionalism and compassion.

Only those who have never been their patient are not afraid and are not afraid of doctors. Congratulations on the Day of the Medical Worker - a holiday of one of the most formidable, but respected and sought-after professions. I wish you to carry your honorary title with pride and never lose inspiration.

Nurses, short skirts
Put on a suit, doctor,
On the day of the physician I wish from the night
Walk until morning!

Let health not fail
In a year, the salary will increase,
Let the crisis pass by
And only joy in life awaits!

Today is an unusual day
And it's not like it's a day off.
But in sick beds
No soreness!

All patients are healthy
Thank you doctors!
Do you have a prick? - No, what are you doing!
Everyone tells the nurses.

A solemn and important day,
Bring peace to doctors!
May everyone be healthy from now on
Become body and soul!

Dear doctors! Happy holiday to you! Thank you for your unprecedented strength and resilience, great enthusiasm and optimism. Let the inner voice never fail, but suggest the correct diagnosis.
