Hippocrates of Kos (c. 460 BCE – c. 370 BCE), alternatively Hippokrates, was a Greek physician who is widely credited as the "Father of Medicine" for his enduring contributions to the field. He revolutionized medicine by subjecting it to systematic study rather than depending on religious guidance, a methodology that clashed with the orthodox views in Greece during his time.[1]
Religiously devout citizens deemed his secular approach to curing disease impious—as though to attempt to defy what the gods have already willed. Despite this controversy, his efficacy attracted those in need of proper medical treatment who would meet him in secret for his services if their local area was especially conservative.[1]
