"Wherever the art of Medicine is loved, there is also a love of Humanity" it's a famous quote of Hippocrates.
Hippocrates was a Greek physician of the Age of Pericles (Classical Greece), and is considered one of the most outstanding figures in the history of medicine. He is referred to as the "Father of Modern Medicine. Hippocrates is credited with being the first person to believe that diseases were caused naturally, not because of superstition and gods.
He separated the discipline of medicine from religion, believing and arguing that disease was not a punishment inflicted by the gods but rather the product of environmental factors, diet, and living habits. Hippocratic medicine and its philosophy are far removed from that of modern medicine. Now, the physician focuses on specific diagnosis and specialized treatment.
But still today Hippocrates famous quote is valid.
"Wherever the art of Medicine is loved, there is also a love of Humanity"
