Doctors' Day is May 1st

April 17, 2025

In Ontario, Doctor's Day is celebrated annually on May 1st to recognize the commitment of physicians to their patients, families, and communities.  The date was chosen to commemorate the birthday of Dr. Emily Stowe, the first female physician to practice in Canada.  Joining Anthony in the studio to highlight this special occasion is Niagara Health's Chief of Staff, Dr. Kevin Chan.
