he was a Greek physician recognized as the father of medicine, and he promise not to put his patients in danger .

Hippocrates did not have access to a microscope.

Hippocrates, the ancient Greek known as the "Father of Western medicine," recommended fasting as a means for improving health

Before Hippocrates' ideas, people believed that if you were diseased, your body was infested with demons. Archeologists have found skulls with holes drilled through the side. If you were unfortunate enough to be plagued with a headache, the local physician would drill a hole through your head to "allow the demons to escape". (I'm actually surprised that no body knew that. I learnt it in History, and I'm ELEVEN!)

Hippocrates' father was apparently Heraclides and his mother Praxitela.

However there is some doubt about the accuracy of biographical data for Hippocrates as the main source of biographical information was written at least six hundred years after his death.

Yes, he was in Athens, Greece. He was the first doctor to believe that illnesses didn't come from angry spirits. He also invented the Hippocratic Oath which doctors still use today. The Hippocratic Oath is an Oath that doctors take that says they will not harm their patients, etc.

Nothing, really. "Hypocrite" comes from the Greek hypokrites meaning actor (in the sense of one who puts on the persona (actor's mask) of virtue or religion, but acts in contradiction. "Hippocrates," of course, is the celebrated ancient Greek physician (c. 460-370 B.C.E.). The first part of his name, hippo, means horse...

Hippocrates' role in the symbol for medicine has a long and complicated history which is based primarily on Greek mythology. To put it simply, the Roman god Mercury (Greek Hermes) was the god of medicine/science in the ancient world while Asclepius was the Roman god of healing. These Greco-Roman gods later became associated with the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates (460-370 BC), who some call the "father of modern medicine" because, like modern doctors, he did not believe disease was caused by the anger of the gods but by scientifically explained circumstances.

In North America, the staff of Mercury called the Caduceus is the symbol for medicine, but the Caduceus is based on the staff of the Greek god of healing Asclepius, called the rod of Asclepius. Like the staff of Mercury, the rod of Asclepius is entwined with a serpent, but the Caduceus sometimes bears a pair of wings at the top, representing the wings/agility of Mercury, while the rod of Asclepius usually does not. So in other words, you might find both the Caduceus (with wings) and the rod of Asclepius (without wings) as modern symbols for medicine. The serpent became associated with medicine because the ancients wrongly believed the snake was the only creature immune from disease. This is why Hippocrates and the serpent combined as symbols and became associated with the modern medical profession. All modern doctors take the "Hippocratic oath" (i.e. principles derived from the teachings of Hippocrates: to cure to the best of the ability and never wilfully harm a patient) upon entering the medical profession.

Hippocrates viewed mental illness to be caused by the humors. Mania was understood to be caused by an excess of hot yellow bile, melancholy (or depression) was understood to be caused by an excess of sticky thick black bile, and schizophrenia was understood to be caused by an excess of cold mucous. Unlike earlier tribal or agrarian societies, Hippocrates believed that mental illness had physiological causes. People with mental illness were understood by Hippocrates to be suffering from an illness, rather than having exhibiting symptoms because they were being punished for something they had done or would do.
