It seems that in the Brave New World of sound bites, political correctness and aspirational platitudes, no one is anyone without a Mission Statement. I am completely against this ghastly trend, but I recently came across this prayer by Sir Robert Hutchison. It was written at least fifty years before anyone had even dreamt of mission statements, but seems to nonetheless capture what we try to live up to in the Fovant practice:
'From the inability to let well alone; from too much zeal for the new and contempt for what is old; from putting knowledge before wisdom, science before art and cleverness before common sense; from treating patients as cases; and from making the cure of the disease more grievous than endurance of the same, Good Lord deliver us.'
