    Symbol Of Medicine Terms

     

    Terms referring to the ancient mythical god of medicine have been spelled numerous different ways over the past 2,500 years. I use different spellings to help Google. The terms Asclepius, Aesculapius, and Asklepios all refer to the same god of medicine during various Greek or Roman times. The serpent entwined around a staff or rod is the second part of this symbol of medicine. Another symbol of medicine occasionally used is the Caduceus which is also spelled Caducius.

     About Us
     

    This company was founded by me over 40 years ago when I was a medical student. After a couple of residencies, a fellowship, and ten years spent as a land developer inserted between residencies, I now work part-time as an Emergency Medicine doctor and make jewelry as a hobby. My wife and I live in Key West with our tiny red poodle named Red Corpuscle. My lovely bride runs the company while I make the jewelry on my days off.

     ...carpe diem.
