No, it is not a legal requirement for doctors to take the Hippocratic Oath. However, most of the people do take the oath because it is a tradition. At least 87% of Americans take the oath.
Most people who take this oath give their name after "I" at the beginning of the oath and add "so help me God" at the end.
Physicians ~ While physicians are the group most associated with the Hippocratic oath not all take it. The original Hippocratic oath contains many sections that are deemed antiquated and even offensive to modern people such as starting out by praying to the good Apollo, forbidding abortion, and commanding doctors to train the children of other doctors for free. Most schools have the graduating students recite an oath of some kind but many have substituted a completely different oath and the ones that do use the "Hippocratic Oath" actually use a modified version that is felt to be more in keeping with modern times. Also, physicians have no monopoly on the oath. Any other group, presumably of health care providers of some sort, can elect to use the oath as part of a ceremony even if very few non-physician groups do. As a side line and to debunk one common myth: The phrase "do no harm" is not in the Hippocratic Oath. Scholars debate whether it is a lose paraphrase of sentiments in the oath or from a different source all together.
There is no evidence of Hippocrates writing the Hippocratic oath but the Hippocratic oath was most likely just named after Hippocrates such as many other things in medicine are named in Ancient Greek or Latin words.
