May 1 is National Physicians’ Day, an annual day of recognition for the remarkable contributions and compassionate care of physicians across the country. Learn more about five of NYGH’s outstanding physicians who are changing lives every day. Their stories, along with those of the 850+ other NYGH physicians, are part of the fabric of our hospital. Collectively they make #NorthYorkGeneralStrong.
Our doctors and nurses have risen to the challenges of COVID-19 for more than two years, working tirelessly to care for the community. The need for care and compassion never rests, and neither do North York General’s 850+ physicians and 1,500+ nurses.
In May we celebrate National Physicians’ Day and Nursing Week. This is more than a time to celebrate the role of doctors and nurses in caring for us all. It’s an opportunity to acknowledge their resilience and continued sacrifices as the pandemic wears on, and express gratitude for all that they’ve done and continue to do.
Please share a message of thanks to the North York General doctors and nurses on our Wall of Gratitude.
