"Hospitals" were a later Roman concept developed from the earlier Aesculapium. It was essentially a temple where the sick could go to pray to Aesculapius (the god of medicine whose serpent entwined staff evolved into the medicinal symbol) for help. There was limited care provided by the priests in order to comfort those seeking help, but not likely any real medicinal intervention.

 

True hospitals in the Roman empire seem to have developed with the growth of Christianity and the church in the Constantinian era, though the modern concept of hospitals (or simply large facilities to treat and comfort the sick) pre-date Christianity in places like India.

 

Two "famous" Roman doctors:

Aulus Cornelius Celsus who wrote De Artibus and De Medicina Octo Libriand

Aelius Galenus (simply Galen) who wrote an exhaustive number of treatises and encyclopedic works (which are unfortunately mostly lost)
