A qualified, definitely the Romans. The Romans learned their medical knowledge from the Greeks, but they improved many of the surgical instruments and medicines handed down from the Greeks. Their military hospitals were the most advanced the the ancient world and their types of surgical instruments are still used today. It wasn't until the nineteenth century that "modern" improvements were made in the medical field.

It was Greek culture.

Moreover, Alexander the Great's conquest of the Middle East, Central Asia and Egypt, the Greeks deeply influenced these areas, too, creating what has been called the Hellenistic cultural period. The Romans' conquest of Greece and the Middle East, took over the Hellenistic world. Greek influence deepened further. This created a post-Hellenistic period where, as Horace put it, 'conquered Greece has conquered the brute victor and brought her arts into rustic Latium.' Roman art and literature followed Greek models. The Roman elite spoke and wrote in Greek.

When the Romans conquered the Greek city of Tarentum in southern Italy, a Greek educator moved to Rome and established the model for education in Rome. Studying Greek became part of the education of elite men, who became fluent in this language and used it often. In this period the Romans also adopted Greek drama and comedy for theatre plays. This laid the foundations for the development of Latin literature. When the Romans got in contact with mainland Greece, Greek influenced increased further. They adopted Greek sports and Greek medicine. They also adopted and adapted Greek Hellenistic sculpture. The two main Greek schools of philosophy, Stoicism and Epicureanism became popular among the Roman elite. The Romans were influenced by Greek astronomy and astrology. They also adopted Greek siege machines for warfare and developed them to a more sophisticated level.
