The evolution of ethics in medicine has provided the concept of the learned physician who is trained in the scientific method (studying nature and philosophy), and who is wise, modest and humane. The physician’s manner, deportment and character should be above reproach, and devotion to the productive art of medicine should supersede any desire for financial gain.
