Abstract
Medicine is in a very self-reflective mood. There is a revival of interest not only in medical ethics (a.k.a. bioethics) but also in medical history, the Hippocratic corpus, and various kinds of literature that indicate physicians are reexamining the foundations of medicine and what it is that gives meaning to medicine. That is, they are reexamining the physician's vocation, in the true sense of vocation as a calling. This interest has coincided with the concern of third parties such as accreditation agencies about the professionalism of physicians.Keywords
