MetroWest Medical Center Honors Physicians on National Doctors’ Day
MetroWest Medical Center will celebrate National Doctors’ Day on Monday, March 25, by paying tribute to its physicians for their service, skill and compassion. The 2024 National Doctors’ Day theme of “Wings & Stethoscopes: Healers of Hope,” reflects the idea that doctors selflessly and tirelessly work to improve the health of American families through two powerful symbols. The first is the stethoscope hanging from the shoulders of doctors, ready to spring into action. The second symbol is the caduceus, two snakes winding around a winged staff in a nod to an ancient Greek leader know for healing and medicine. National Doctors’ Day, observed on March 30 each year, recognizes and appreciates the pivotal role of doctors in maintaining and enhancing the health of our community.
