), also known as
Hippocrates II
, was a
Greek
physician
of the
Age of Pericles
(
Classical Greece
), who is considered one of the most outstanding figures in the
history of medicine
. He is often referred to as the
"Father of Medicine"
[1]
in recognition of his lasting contributions to the field as the founder of the Hippocratic School of Medicine. This intellectual school revolutionized
Ancient Greek medicine
, establishing it as a discipline distinct from other fields with which it had traditionally been associated (
theurgy
and
philosophy
), thus establishing medicine as a profession.

[3]
However, the achievements of the writers of the
Corpus
, the practitioners of Hippocratic medicine, and the actions of Hippocrates himself were often conflated; thus very little is known about what Hippocrates actually thought, wrote, and did. Hippocrates is commonly portrayed as the
paragon
of the ancient physician and credited with coining the
Hippocratic Oath
, which is still relevant and in use today. He is also credited with greatly advancing the systematic study of
clinical medicine
, summing up the medical knowledge of previous schools, and prescribing practices for physicians through the
Hippocratic Corpus
and other works.
