Art. 2. Each member on admission to the Socie- ty, shall pay to the Treasurer the sum of four dollars, and an assessment annually of two dollars. Art. 3. Members of other Medical Societies may transfer their membership to this Society without pay- ing the initiatory fee, on producing to the Council the necessary credentials. POLICE.* SECTION I. CONSULTATIONS. Consultations should be encouraged in all difficult or protracted cases, as, when properly conducted, they increase confidence in the attending Physician, and tend to create more enlarged views in his practice. No feeling of rivalship or jealousy should be indulged. Candor, justice, and all due respect should be manifes- ted toward the Physician in attendance, and as he may be presumed to be best acquainted with the patient and family, he should deliver all the directions, and per- * form the necessary operations, unless he or the patient requests otherwise. The consulting Physician should never visit without the attending one, unless by the desire of the latter, or when, as in sudden emergency, he is not to be found. No discussion of the case should ever take place in the presence of the patient or his friends, and no opin- ions delivered which are not the result of previous con- sultation and concurrence. All theoretical debates should be avoided, as occasioning perplexity and loss of time ; as there may be much diversity of opinion on speculative points, with perfect unanimity as to the mode of treatment. Whatever may be their private opinion of each other, Physicians in consultation, * Selected with but few variations from Percival's Medical Ethicks. 10 should endeavor to divest themselves of all prejudice and admit of no other consideration than what will most effectually contribute to the relief of the case submitted to their care. If a Physician's mind be not open to conviction, from whatever source it may come, he should in honor decline the consultation. All debates and discussions should be strictly con- fidential, and in consultation visits, the most scrupulous punctuality should be observed as to time. SECTION II. INTERFERENCES. Medicine is a liberal profession, and the members of it are expected to be men of refinement and educa- tion. Success in business should therefore depend on merit, not on artifice or insinuation. Certain un- definable assiduities and attentions to families usual- ly employing another, should be considered beneath the dignity of a regular Physician, as making a mere trade of a learned profession. All officious interferen- ces in cases of sickness of such families, evince a meanness of disposition unbecoming the character of a practitioner or gentleman. No meddling inquiries should be made concerning them, nor hints given rel- ative to their nature and treatment, nor any selfish con- duct pursued that may directly or indirectly tend to weaken confidence in the Physician or Surgeon who has the care of them. When a Physician or Surgeon is called to a patient, who has been under the care of another, he should as- certain, before any examination of the case, whether 11 the other still continues his visits, and whether the pa- tient considers himself under his care : in which case, he is not to assume the charge of the patient, nor to give advice, (excepting in instances of sudden attack) without a regular consultation : and if such previous- ly attending Physician has discontinued his visits, and the patient does not consider himself under his care, his practice should be treated with candor, and justi- fied so far as probity and truth will admit: for the want of success in the primary treatment of the disorder, is no impeachment of professional skill and knowledge. It frequently happens, that a Physicician, in incidental communications with the patients of others, or with their friends, may have their cases stated to him in so direct a manner, as not to admit of his declining to give an opinion. Under such circumstances, his ob- servations should be delivered with the most delicate propriety and reserve. He should not interfere in the curative plans pursued, and should even recommend a steady adherence to them, if they appear to merit ap- probation. SECTION III. DIFFERENCES. As diversity of sentiment, and collision of interest may in the Medical, as in other Professions, occasion controversy and sometimes even contention ; whenev- er such cases unfortunately occur, as cannot be amica- bly adjusted by the parties themselves, they should be referred to the Council or arbitration of some brethren of the Profession, mutually to be agreed on, but neither 12 the subject of such reference nor the adjudication should be made public, as all such controversies are personally injurious to the character of the individuals concerned, and what is of more consequence, discreditable to the Profession. SECTION IV. DISCOURAGEMENT OF Q.UACKERY. The use of Quack remedies should be discouraged, not only as destructive to health and life, but as dis- graceful to the Profession. No regular Physician should use or recommend a secret nostrum, whether it be his own or the invention of others. If it be of real efficacy, the concealment is inconsistent with be- neficence and professional liberality, and if mystery alone give it value and importance, such craft implies either disgraceful ignorance or fraudulent avarice. SECTION V. FEES. General rules should be adopted by neighboring Phy- sicians relative to the pecuniary acknowledgements of their patients; and it should be deemed a point of honor to adhere to them; any deviation from or evasion of such rules should be considered as meriting the censure of the Profession. Gratuitous services to the poor are in all cases expected. The characteristic beneficence of the Profession is inconsistent with sordid views or av- 13 aricious rapacity. The diseased poor of every descrip- tion should be objects of our peculiar care. Doctor Boerhaave said they were his best patients, as God was their paymaster. SECTION VI. EXEMPTION FROM CHARGES. All members of the Profession should be attended gratuitously, but visits should not be obtruded offi- ciously, as such civility might create embarrassment by interfering with that choice on which confidence de- pends. Nevertheless, distant members are expected to defray the expense of travel; and such of the cler- gy as possess the means of making a reasonable re- muneration for medical services, are not considered more privileged than any other order of patients. 2 MEMBERS.
