Maimonides Medical Society 

Maimonides Medical Society 

A group of medical professionals who are committed to the wellness of our entire community regardless of race,ethnicity, gender, or religious beliefs. The Maimonides Society of the Jewish Federation is at the forefront of both philanthropy and service in the Jewish community. The society provides a unique opportunity for like-minded doctors and practicing caregivers to connect to a cause they care about and to each other.

 

The Oath of Maimonides 

The eternal providence has appointed me to watch over the life and health of Thy creatures. May the love for my art actuate me at all times; may neither avarice nor miserliness, nor thirst for glory or for a great reputation engage my mind; for the enemies of truth and philanthropy could easily deceive me and make me forgetful of my lofty aim of doing good to Thy children.

May I never see in the patient anything but a fellow creature in pain.

Grant me the strength, time and opportunity always to correct what I have acquired, always to extend its domain; for knowledge is immense and the spirit of man can extend indefinitely to enrich itself daily with new requirements.

Today he can discover his errors of yesterday and tomorrow he can obtain a new light on what he thinks himself sure of today. Oh, God, Thou has appointed me to watch over the life and death of Thy creatures; here am I ready for my vocation and now I turn unto my calling.
