Plistonicus (or Pleistonicus, Greek: Πλειστόνικος), was an ancient Greek physician, a pupil of Praxagoras,[1] who therefore lived in the 4th and 3rd centuries BC. He appears to have written a work on anatomy,[2] which is several times mentioned by Galen,[3] who calls him one of the most eminent physicians of his time.[4] He is quoted by Pliny,[5] Athenaeus,[6] Oribasius,[7] and Gariopontus.[8] None of his writings have survived.
