[edit] Oath of Professionalism (Entering Class of 2007)

We, as students of medicine, don these white coats to acknowledge our responsibilities to self, to patient, to profession, and to society.

Our path is one of diligent scholarship and a lifelong commitment to learning. We pledge to exemplify humility and honesty. We strive to be dignified and composed, approaching our profession with passion, integrity and excellence, while maintaining a healthy balance between our personal and professional lives.

As we begin our practice of medicine, we will demonstrate compassion, sensitivity, and empathy. We will strive to cultivate trusting and respectful relationships through effective communication and active listening. By serving as advocates and accepting others' differences, we will assist patients in achieving physical, spiritual, and mental health.

As members of a global medical community, we embrace our responsibilities as leaders, educators, and guides to our larger society. Through activism, advocacy and service, we seek to address disparities and improve health in all communities at home and abroad. As scientists, we must maintain a commitment to research and scholarship, and recognize that innovation will only occur through professional collaboration.

Finally, we acknowledge the living nature of this oath. These words are not set in stone, but shall evolve as we progress in our training. On our honor, we promise to uphold these values as we enter the field of medicine.
