    The Hippocratic Oath

    (Modern Version)

    I SWEAR in the presence of the Almighty and before my family, my teachers and
    my peers that according to my ability and judgment I will keep this Oath and
    Stipulation.

    TO RECKON all who have taught me this art equally dear to me as my parents and
    in the same spirit and dedication to impart a knowledge of the art of medicine to
    others. I will continue with diligence to keep abreast of advances in medicine. I
    will treat without exception all who seek my ministrations, so long as the treatment
    of others is not compromised thereby, and I will seek the counsel of particularly
    skilled physicians where indicated for the benefit of my patient.

    I WILL FOLLOW that method of treatment which according to my ability and


    judgment, I consider for the benefit of my patient and abstain from whatever is
    harmful or mischievous. I will neither prescribe nor administer a lethal dose of
    medicine to any patient even if asked nor counsel any such thing nor perform the
    utmost respect for every human life from fertilization to natural death and reject
    abortion that deliberately takes a unique human life.

    WITH PURITY, HOLINESS AND BENEFICENCE I will pass my life and


    practice my art. Except for the prudent correction of an imminent danger, I will
    neither treat any patient nor carry out any research on any human being without the
    valid informed consent of the subject or the appropriate legal protector thereof,
    understanding that research must have as its purpose the furtherance of the health
    of that individual. Into whatever patient setting I enter, I will go for the benefit of
    the sick and will abstain from every voluntary act of mischief or corruption and
    further from the seduction of any patient.

    WHATEVER IN CONNECTION with my professional practice or not in


    connection with it I may see or hear in the lives of my patients which ought not be
    spoken abroad, I will not divulge, reckoning that all 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 and science of medicine with the blessing of
    the Almighty and respected by my peers and society, but should I trespass and
    violate this Oath, may the reverse by my lot.
