Cassius Allanus Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 What would a surgeon and/or doctor in the Roman army have been called in Latin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paal_101 Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 As far as names go the word doctor actually means "teacher" in Latin and were often associated with gladiators. Surgeons were known as "medicus vulnerarius" which means "wound healer". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
