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.
