We emphasise excellence as a habit in clinical studies and we achieve it through the most diverse range of medical conditions and treatments. For our students, Asclepius, Hippocrates, or Galen are not ancient history but living paradigms of ethics, practical skills and of the drive to always change medicine for the better.
