The Hippocratic Oath is an oath of ethics historically taken by physicians. It is one of the most widely known of Greek medical texts. In its original form, it requires a new physician to swear, by a number of healing gods, to uphold specific ethical standards.
Modern doctors are not required to swear the hypocratic oath and certainly not to healing Greek gods.
Modern doctors swear the Modern Oath of Physicians ( Oath of Lasagna ): Written in 1964 by Louis Lasagna, Academic Dean of the School of Medicine at Tufts University, and used in many medical schools today. In the Oath of Lasagna there is no prohibition against abortion in this "modern" oath.

Note: emphasis added. Also, note that there is no prohibition against abortion in this "modern" oath. There is no promise by the physician that they will "do no harm" or never give a "lethal medicine" as is contained in the Hippocratic Oath.
