Abdollah ibn Bukhtishu
Abu Sa'id Ubaid Allah ibn Bakhtyashu, also spelled Bukhtishu, Bukhtyashu, and Bakhtshooa in many texts, was an 11th century Persian physician, descendant of the great Bakhtshooa Gondishapoori.
He was the last and possibly the greatest representative of the Bukhtyashu family, who emigrated from Jundishapur to Bagdad in 765AD. His main works are the Reminder of the Homestayer, dealing with the philosophical terms used in medicine, and a treatise on lovesickness.
He died in 1058AD.
