Dana Shively
I promise to uphold the honor that comes with being a physician by using my knowledge to improve the lives of others while staying humble in doing so;
I swear to acknowledge the importance of honesty when creating a trusting patient physician relationship; May I never waiver in my commitment to the medical profession;
I promise to never lose myself in the pursuit of power and profits with the title as a physician;
I hope to learn from all mistakes, as I know they will be made, and use them as an opportunity to grow; May I adapt and keep an open mind when faced with challenges to continue on my journey of life-long learning and caring for others;
I promise to dedicate myself to prevention, curing, and caring for patients with empathy, warmth, and respect;
Overall, by staying true to this oath, I hope to have a fulfilling career in the field of medicine and experience the joy of healing those who seek my help and giving these same individuals their own joy in living a wonderful life.
