Democedes

It was undoubtedly because Democedes came from Croton at roughly the time when Pythagoras was prominent there and because of the Pythagorean connections of his father and father-in-law that late sources came to label Democedes himself a Pythagorean.

There no good reason to think that Democedes (DK I 110-112), the physician from Croton, was himself a Pythagorean, although he had some Pythagorean connections.

A Calliphon, who could be Democedes 'father, is presented as an associate of Pythagoras by Hermippus (DK I 111.36 ff.) and appears in Iamblichus' catalogue, so it is reasonable to regard him as a Pythagorean, although we know nothing more of him.
