National Doctors’ Day Recognition

Since 1991, March 30 has been a special day to honor those who serve faithfully as our nation’s physicians.

This year, in recognition of National Doctors’ Day, we saw an outpouring of support from our community. Our physicians work hard to provide the best possible care for our patients. We know your recognition of that effort - through your donations and personal notes - gives them joy as they continue to serve such a fantastic community.


Dedicated to all physicians at Bayfront Health,

Thank you to each of you for all you do to take care of our community. The time you sacrifice from family and personal endeavors doesn’t go unnoticed and is appreciated. Thank you for making St. Petersburg a trusted place to live, work and play knowing we have the best experts to care for us in a time of need.

Dear Dr. Henry,

Thank you for the care and attention you gave me last year while preparing for my breast surgery. You assured me that no matter the diagnosis, you would be there by my side every step of the way. My entire experience with you and your team was outstanding. I hope you feel valued and appreciated every day because you are. Happy National Doctors’ Day, Dr. Henry. You are simply the best!

– Danielle
