It is a widely held misconception that the familiar dictum "First, do no harm" comes from the Hippocratic Oath, an oath many physicians take when they enter medical practice.

I have long intended to address another misconception about medicine — the idea that the caduceus (with two snakes) is the symbol of medicine. It is not. The true, original symbol of medicine is the staff of Aesculapius (one snake). This topic has been discussed elsewhere in great depth and I encourage you to read further if I have piqued your interest.
