Sushruta

Suśruta (, ) was an ancient Indian physician and surgeon, who made significant contributions to the field of plastic and cataract surgery in the 6th century BC. He was the author of the ''Suśruta Saṃhitā'' (''Suśruta's Compendium''), considered to be one of the most important surviving ancient treatises on medicine..}} It is also considered a foundational text of Ayurveda. The treatise addresses all aspects of general medicine, including diet, surgery, nosology, anatomy, developmental biology, therapeutics, toxicology, pediatrics and other subjects. The inclusion of particularly impressive and historically important chapters on surgery has wrongly led some to believe that this is the work's primary focus. The treatise consists of 186 chapters.

The ''Compendium of Suśruta'' locates its author in Varanasi, India. Provided by Wikipedia
