Damn right, many doctors see themselves as specialists and have no understanding of the interrelationship of mind, body, and soul.....u have to be your own doctor, most are useless
I don’t know you but if you truly want this it will happen, of that I have no doubt. Having lived in Baltimore and directly across from Johns Hopkins University and the lacrosse field, I wish you the best in your future medical career. 👩🏻⚕️
In an emergency, Western Medical Care is top notch. However, your health is 'YOUR' responsibility. That includes: Mental, Physical, Spiritual and Emotional. If you forfeit any of these to another individual, you are a child requiring constant care from others.
This is not the Hippocratic Oath. This is the "revised" Hippocratic Oath. I doubt if Hippocrates would want his name associated with this new version. I see where the Harvard youtube video refers to it as "the Oath."
This is not oath of Hippocrates. That not a single person in video knows this is a quite red flag for the level of education of this school. This is the real oath: I swear by Apollo Healer, by Asclepius, by Hygieia, by Panacea, and by all the gods and goddesses, making them my witnesses, that I will carry out, according to my ability and judgment, this oath and this indenture. To hold my teacher in this art equal to my own parents; to make him partner in my livelihood; when he is in need of money to share mine with him; to consider his family as my own brothers, and to teach them this art, if they want to learn it, without fee or indenture; to impart precept, oral instruction, and all other instruction to my own sons, the sons of my teacher, and to indentured pupils who have taken the Healer’s oath, but to nobody else. I will use those dietary regimens which will benefit my patients according to my greatest ability and judgment, and I will do no harm or injustice to them.[7] Neither will I administer a poison to anybody when asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a course. Similarly I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion. But I will keep pure and holy both my life and my art. I will not use the knife, not even, verily, on sufferers from stone, but I will give place to such as are craftsmen therein. Into whatsoever houses I enter, I will enter to help the sick, and I will abstain from all intentional wrong-doing and harm, especially from abusing the bodies of man or woman, bond or free. And whatsoever I shall see or hear in the course of my profession, as well as outside my profession in my intercourse with men, if it be what should not be published abroad, I will never divulge, holding such things to be holy secrets. Now if I carry out this oath, and break it not, may I gain for ever reputation among all men for my life and for my art; but if I break it and forswear myself, may the opposite befall me.
Is this somehow ‘binding’? Should they violate this ‘oath’... are there ramifications?? So... they swear to “that which I hold most sacred”?? What is that?? I saw recently where a BIDEN appointee ‘swore-in’ on a Dr Seuss book. 1:24 “Fully committed to those I serve”? Reference to patients?! “And just and loyal to the profession of medicine and its members”? Does this conflict with the statement just before it? Is there a difference between congratulations doctors and congratulations doctors of medicine?! Plus I don’t believe I heard ‘first do no harm’?
When was this recently some what change oath in Doctors of medicine. i have opened a couple on you tube on this as they put it . scary change. but its was a few years ago.
To those complaining that this isn’t the original oath, or that there’s is no “First, do no harm,” shut up. These people, and this oath, are in place to take care of you with whatever you may have. Unfortunately, some things require harm. How would sickness be tested? How would pain, and what extent there may be, be tested? Ask you how you’re feeling? Well, I’ll extend a better question. How many of us have lied, even if it seemed small in the moment, to a doctor or nurse? Someone, only trying to do their best to help. “Do no harm,” when fighting pathogens just doesn’t work. Swearing to Greek gods that, many of us, don’t believe in or care about, won’t get you to take your physical therapy seriously. Congratulate, and thank, these people for dealing with us. “It’s not the original oath,” boo hoo. Grow up. Congratulations to those here, I hope you’re doing well and helping a lot of people! You worked hard, and it would be an honor to be helped by you.
We are sinners but ea ch day we grow as we hurt each bother by words than we are sorry do we try to saycwexreally am sorry andcgrow each day that usswhy we say grow old together in spirit and in truth
This is one of the soyest things I've ever seen in my life, and it's also not the true oath; There's a reason the original oath mentioned Apollo and Asclepius...
What's the reason? I'm into natural medicine and Astrology which I know Hippocrates said that you had to have a working knowledge of in order to be a doctor or medicine man.
