It felt like the incantation somehow connected me to a long line of great men, from Hippocrates to Benjamin Rush to my childhood family doctor. It marked a distinct line between the life I had already lived and the medical profession that was to become a considerable part of my identity. But is the Hippocratic Oath an outdated, out of touch relic in the complex modern world? [...] [...] The Examining Room of Dr. Charles – Analyzing The Hippocratic Oath I recall the thrill of reciting the Hippocratic Oath for the first time as part of a ritualistic White Coat Ceremony.

I graduated from medical school out of phase with my class, a quarter late, and since I needed to be at my internship, I never went to my own graduation ceremony, and therefore never "took" the Hippocratic Oath. So there! I have in vain waited for someone to poke at me with some comment about taking the Hippocratic Oath, with some chastisement or coercion in mind.
