Brill's New Pauly: "Soranus, Physician in Rome around AD 100, principal representative of the medical schools of the Methodists, recognized in the 20th cent. as one of the most significant physicians of Greco-Roman antiquity....The Suda mentions two people of the same name whose usually accepted identity has not been proved (Σ 851 f. Adler). None of the c. 30 works has been preserved without fragmentation or contamination and many are known only from excerpts or titles
S.'s commentaries and works on doxography and medical history are evidence of a comprehensive medical and philosophical education ......Περὶ γυναικείων παθῶν (Perì gynaikeíōn pathôn, 'On Diseases of Women'): his major work (4 books), preserved in Greek, originally obviously illustrated and restored by J. Ilberg, edited and revised in Latin in C. A. and in Muscio, must have existed in a detailed version for physicians...."
