Hippocratic Oath
Written in 400 B.C.E. by Hippocrates in Greek
Translated by Francis Adams
I share with you the "Hippocratric Oath", because I believe in it to the core. Please take a look at it and hold me accountable to my oath to care for you.
I swear by Apollo the physician, and Aesculapius, and Health, and All-heal, and all the gods and goddesses, that, according to my ability and judgment, I will keep this Oath and this stipulation- to reckon him who taught me this art equally dear to me as my parents, to share my substance with him, and relieve his necessities if required: to look upon his offspring in the same footing as my own brothers, and to teach them this art, if they shall wish to learn it, without fee or stipulation: and that by precept, lecture, and every other mode of instruction, I will impart a knowledge of the art to my own sons, and those of my teachers, and to the disciples bound by a stipulation and oath according to the law of medicine, but to none others.
I will follow that system of regimen which, according to my abilities and judgment, I consider for the benefit of my patients, and abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous.
I will give no deadly medicine to any one if asked, nor suggest any such counsel;
With purity and with holiness I will pass my life and practice my Art
I will not cut persons laboring under the stone, but will leave this to be done by men who are practicioners of this work.
Into whatever houses I enter, I will go into them for the benefit of the sick, and will abstain from every voluntary act of mischief and corruption; and, further from the seduction of females or males, of freemen and slaves.
Whatever, in connection with my professional practice or not, in connection with it, I see or hear, in the life of men, which ought not to be spoken of abroad, I will not pulge, as reckening that shall such should be kept secret.
While I continue to keep this oath unviolated, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and the practice of the art, respected by all men, in all times. But should I trespass and violate this Oath, may the reverse be my lot.
