Asclepius/Asklepios- the god of medicine and healing.

A son of Apollo and Coronis/Koronis, a princess of the Lapiths who cheated on Apollo with Ischys/Alcyoneus/Lycus. A raven reported the news of the affair to Apollo who turned the bird's feathers from white to black in anger before sending Artemis to kill Coronis. Apollo commanded Hermes to rescue the unborn Asclepius from his mother's womb while she on her funeral pyre and to give him to Chiron to raise.
In another version of the tale Coronis birthed him and exposed him in the wilderness where he was suckled by a goat and guarded by a dog until the shepherd Aresthanas found him.
Sometimes Arsinoe, daughter of Leucippus/Leukippos is said to be his mother, her sisters Phoebe and
Hilaeira (the Leucippides) were abducted by Castor and Pollux to be their brides.

He married Epion, goddess of soothing pain and with her had daughters, Hygieia/Hygiea/Hygeia, goddess of health, cleanliness and sanitation, Panacea/Panakeia, a goddess of remedy and cures, Aceso/Akeso, goddess of healing, Iaso/Ieso, goddess of recuperation, Aegle/Aigle, goddess of good health and sons, Machaon/Makhaon, a surgeon and medic who led an army from Thessaly during the Trojan War with his brother Podalirius, he was wounded by Paris and killed by Eurpylus, Podalirius/Podaleirius, healed Philoctetes, hid in the Trojan Horse, survived the war and married a princess, Syrna, and Telesphorus/Telesphoros, a dwarf wearing a hood or a cap who was usually in the company of Hygieia, he was linked to recovery from illness.
He had a son, Aratus/Aratos, with Aristodama.

He may have recieved his healing from Athen who gifted him with blood from the Gorgon, the blood flowing from the right side of her body had the power to raise the dead.

He sometimes substitutes for Polyeidos/Polyidus, a seer in the myth of Glaucus. Glaucus was a son of Minos who disappeared chasing a mouse, the Curetes told Minos that whoever could find a marvelous creature born amongst them would find a child, Polyidus found a calf that changed from white to red to black during the day. He then found Glaucus, who had died after falling into a cask of honey, Minos imprisoned Polyidus ordering him to resurrect the boy. A snake came to Polyidus in the cellar and he killed with a sword, he then observed the snake's mate resurrecting it with a herb, he found this herb and brought back Glaucus with it.

He joined the hunt for the Calydonian Boar and was an Argonaut.

He was persuaded to resurrect Hippolytus, son of Theseus, by Artemis or Poseidon or for coin. Hippolytus had been killed by a sea monster or bull sent by Poseidon or Dionysus that frightened his horses who pulled him to his death. This was because Theseus had asked Poseidon to curse him because his wife Phaedra had falsely claimed that Hippolytus had raped her when in truth he had simply resisted his advances. Asclepius resurrected him and was struck down by Zeus, either for bringing back the dead, for taking coin for bringing back the dead or because Hades asked it to be done as he considered the dead being taken from the the Underworld to be an insult.
In outrage, Apollo killed the Cyclopes that had created Zeus' lightning bolts and Zeus made him served King Admetus as punishment.
At Apollo's request Zeus placed Asclepius in the stars as the constellation Opiuchus. Alternatively he became a god, granted godhood by Zeus to prevent further quarreling with Apollo.

He is depicted as a young bearded man carrying a staff with a snake entwined about it.

The Aesculapian Snake is named for him, these are non-venomous snakes that were used in healing rituals and allowed to roam freely in temples to the god amongst the ill.

He was linked to the god Paena/Paeëon/Paeon, a physician to the gods initially he was his own individual before being another name for Apollo or Asclepius. He healed Ares when he was wounded by Diomedes during the Trojan War and healed Hades when Heracles shot him with an arrow.

He had no Roman counterpart
