Hippocrates (c.460-c.377 b.c.), a Greek physician, is believed to have greatly influenced the science of medicine by refuting the superstitious practices and beliefs of that era. Attributed to Hippocrates is the "Hippocratic Oath", a document that outlines the rules and ethics that physicians should practice in dealings with both patients and colleagues. This very handsome multicolored 100% silk tie would be a great gift to your favorite doctor or medical student.
