Speak Now or Be Silenced: Why the Hippocratic Oath

from The OBservations Podcast

In this special episode in honor of Doctor’s Day, we’re coming to you from AAPLOG’s annual MBEC conference with a powerful keynote from Dr. Christina Francis. Dr. Francis takes us on a journey through the history of the Hippocratic Oath, a legacy that has guided physicians for centuries, and challenges physicians to consider what it truly means to uphold the ethical responsibility to do no harm. She reminds us that there are times in medicine when silence is not neutrality… it’s surrender. As physicians, our voices matter. Our oath matters. And today, Dr. Francis invites you to rediscover why and recommit yourself to use your voice for your profession and your patients.
