The Hoppocratic Oath

Hi all...

I was just wondering if anyone knows what year the Hippocratic Oath was made optional in the UK?


Thanks :smile:

300-500 BC, hippocrates lived between 460-380 BC, on the general consensus, 4th/5th century BC, conflicting ideas on the treaties suggested it could not all have been written by hippocrates. Quick google should give you some more insight, however most sources say the latter.

Dunno, but I don't like the fact that it is being omitted. The Declaration of Geneva is great and I would hope that it's done at my graduation.
