Aeschines (Template:Langx) was a Greek ancient physician who lived in the latter half of the 4th century AD.[1] He was born on the island of Chios, and settled at Athens, where he appears to have practiced with little success, but acquired fame by a cure of Eunapius Sardianus, who on his voyage to Athens had been seized with a fever, which yielded only to treatment of a peculiar nature.[2]

Another Athenian physician of this name is quoted by Pliny,[3] of whom it is only known that he must have lived some time before the middle of the 1st century AD.
