Menemachus

Menemachus, (Greek: Μενέμαχος), a Greek physician born at one of the cities named Aphrodisias, who belonged to the Methodic school of medicine, and lived in the 2nd century.[1] He wrote some works which are not now extant, and is probably the physician quoted by Caelius Aurelianus,[2] Galen,[3] and Oribasius.[4] The Menemachus, however, who is quoted by Celsus,[5] is not the same person, and must have lived at least a century earlier.
