THE OSTEOPATHIC OATH HIPPOCRATIC OATH I do hereby affirm m - l() alt - to the profes- sion I am about to enter. I will be mindful al a ' s of m ' great respon- sibility ' to preser e the health and the life of m - patients, to retain their eonfidenee and respeet both as a physieian and a friend who will guard their secrets with scrupulous honor and fidel- it -, to perform faithfulK ' my professional dutii ' s, to i-mplo) onl those recognized methods of treatment consistent with good judgment and with my skill and ability, keep- ing in mind always nature ' s laws and the body ' s inherent capacity for recovery. I w ill be ever vigilant in aiding in the gen- eral welfare of the community, sustaining its laws and institutions, not engaging in those practices hich will in any way bring shame or discredit upon m self or my profession. I will gi e no drugs for deadly purposes to any per- son, though it be asked of me. I ill endeavor to work in accord w ith my colleagues in a spirit of progressive co- operation, and never by word or by act cast imputations upon them or their rightful prac- tices. I will look with respect and esteem upon all those who have taught me my art. To my col- lege I will be loyal and strive always for its best interests and for the interests of the students who will come after me. I will be ever alert to further the application of basic biologic truths to the healing arts and to develop the princi- ples of osteopathy which were first enunciated hx Andrew Ta ' lor Still. 30 I swear by Apollo the physician and Aes- culapius and Hygeia and Panacea and all the gods and goddesses that according to my abil- it ' 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 sub- stance 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 on stipulation and that by pre- cept, lecture and every other mode of instruc- tion, I will impart a knowledge of the Art to my own sons, and those of my teachers, and to dis- ciples bound by a stipulation and oath. According to the law of medicine but to none others, I will follow the system of regimen which according to my ability and judgment I consider for the benefit of my patients and abs- tain from whatever is deleterious and mis- chievous. I will give no deadly medicine to any one if asked nor suggest any such counsel and in like manner I will not give to a woman a plessary to produce abortion. 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 practitioners of this work. Into whatever houses I enter, I will go into them for the benefit of the sick, and I 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 divulge as 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 respected by all men in all times! But should I trespass and violate this Oath, may the reverse be my lot!
