Healing Our Healers: Honouring Doctors and Renewing Our Promise to Care for Them

By-Dr. Lahari Surapaneni, CEO, Bangalore Hospitals

“Behind every life transformed, every anxious family comforted, and every breakthrough in healing, stands a Doctor who, in turn, needs healing too. On this Doctors Day, we honor the resilience of our doctors, those who mask their own challenges to care for others unwaveringly. Let us celebrate not only their skill and compassion, but also renew our institutional promise: to nurture their well-being, support their mental health, lighten their administrative load, and champion their work‑life balance. Because when we heal our healers, when we uplift the caregivers behind the mask, we’re not only caring for our doctors; we’re strengthening the very soul of our hospital and deepening our service to the community.”
