Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Today Hippocrates is known as the “Father of Medicine".

Detailed explanation-2: -Hippocrates was born around 460 BCE on the island of Kos, Greece. He became known as the founder of medicine and was regarded as the greatest physician of his time.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hippocrates vehemently rejected the misconceptions regarding diseases. He believed human beings became ill not because of God’s will or retribution, or even as a byproduct of mystical spirits lurking around in the environment, but due to the imbalance caused in their physical being.

Detailed explanation-4: -Many doctors were called Asclepiades or Hippocrates. In Rome, these names were associated with Asclepius and with the great Hippocrates of Cos and can therefore be regarded as professional names, which fathers (who were doctors themselves) gave their sons because they were expected to continue this profession.
