Since The Art of Medicine began, doctors of all ages have been trying to improve it. They see their jobs more as fun, than they do as work. Who wouldn’t enjoy saving a persons life everyday. Doctors have proved to us that they are able to cure, nearly, anything? By doing this, doctors have earned our respect along with a lot of money.

Thanks to Pare’s intellect, surgeons from then on tried to cure without hurting the patient.
