the son of a doctor. Hippocrates studied medicine and then he went from town to town
where he practiced the art of medicine. It is known that he drove out (изгнал) the plague
[pleig] from Athens by lighting fires in the street of the city. That is all we know of
Hippocrates himself. But we have his writing which are called Hippocrates Collection. The

modern. The Collection begins with the famous Oath.

established medical schools in Athenes and in other towns. He wrote several books and
many case histories. Hippocrates taught his pupils to examine the patient very attentively
and to give him quick help. He created medicine on the basis of experience. He taught that
every disease was a natural process and it had natural causes.

punishment of Gods.
Hippocrates paid much attention to diet, gymnastics, massage and seabathing in
treatment.

fractures and even trephined the skull. Не observed diseases such а pneumonia, tuberculosis
and malaria and added to the medical language such words as chronic, crisis, relapse
(рецидив) and convalescence (видужання).
Hippocrates made medicine an art, a science and a profession.
Hippocrates is the most famous of all the Greek doctors. He is often called “the father
of Medicine” and some of his ideas are still important.
