Hippocrates, often referred to as the "Father of Medicine," was an ancient Greek physician who lived around 460 to 370 BCE. He became famous for establishing a systematic and empirical approach to medicine, separating it from superstition and philosophy. His contributions include the Hippocratic Corpus, a collection of texts that laid the foundations for clinical practice and medical ethics, notably the Hippocratic Oath. His emphasis on observation, diagnosis, and the study of clinical symptoms significantly advanced the field of medicine.
