Medicine is the science and art (ars medicina) of healing. It encompasses a range of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness. Before scientific medicine, healing arts were practised in accordance with alchemical treatments and ritual practices that developed out of religious and cultural traditions. The term "Western medicine" was until recently used to refer to scientific and science-based practices to distinguish it from "Eastern medicine" — which are typically based in traditional, anecdotal, or otherwise non-scientific practices.

Contemporary medicine applies health science, biomedical research, and medical technology to diagnose and treat injury and disease, typically through medication, surgery, or some other form of therapy. The word medicine is derived from the Latin ars medicina, meaning the art of healing.

Though medical technology and clinical expertise are pivotal to contemporary medicine, successful face-to-face relief of actual suffering continues to require the application of ordinary human feeling and compassion, known in English as bedside manner.

How does going to medical school work with regular college?
Q. I'm a junior in High school and for a while now I have been trying to figure out exactly how going to a regular college then to a medical school works. I want to become an oncologist, but I don't know where to start exactly, no one has been very clear to me. How many years of regular college do you have to take before you can go to medical school? And what majors do you need to take? And how many years of Medical school do you have to go through?

A. You have to first attend undergraduate university and major in a career-oriented major, preferably biology, chemistry, or biochemistry. You don't, of course, have to take a science major. It just helps you cram in all the pre-requites required for medical school (biology, chemistry, organic chemistry, etc) so most students choose to major in a science before medical school to kill two birds with one stone. This is normally 4 years, but you could try and graduate earlier. College would essentially be like high school. You'd have to work on and build your GPA and study your butt off to apply to medical school in your senior year of college. You'd have to take the MCAT before applying; basically it's the SAT, except much harder, all over… [cont.]

Q. Any medical work experience, medical 'camps' or practice available in Brisbane or any surrounding areas? I am hoping to study Medicine at university and am currently looking for opportunities to complete volunteer work in the medical sector, to gain experience of working with patients, doctors, and other medical professionals.

I have also helped to run many different music workshops for young children over the course of 2 years. In addition to this, I have also spent time an Elderly person's home… [cont.]

A. You can start by volunteering at a hospital. Then, take an eight-week course and get certified to become a certified nursing assistant. This basically trains you to clean bed-pans, but it's a start. At least you'll get into a medical environment. Then, depending on your eventual goal, you can either get a nursing degree or go to medical school.

What medical conditions could prevent you from enlisting in the army?
Q. If I had my diploma, and parental consent, could I enlist in the army if I was just diagnosed as Clinically Depressed? What other medical conditions could prevent me from enlisting? no, im not blind. but what if im on anti-depressants? what that hold me back?
Asked by andrew T - Fri Feb 6 01:13:43 2009 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It might hold you back, take a look at this link for disqualifying medical conditions: Keep in mind that there are medical waivers for a lot of these dq's. Since you want to enlist in the Army I'd have to say that you have a higher chance of being granted a waiver for that branch then if it were another. I wish you luck and hope that you are able to get in. Thank you for wanting to serve our country!
