The doctor, who was head of internal medicine at the Palestinian territory's main hospital, was killed along with 12 members of his extended family.
They included his mother and father, his wife Reem, and their 17-year-old son Tawfik and 12-year-old-daughter Tala.
"This is a really big loss not just for us personally because we knew Ayman - this is also a loss for his patients and students," Dr Ghaith al-Zaanin, a close friend and former colleague who lives in Canada, told the BBC.

Israeli airstrikes on Gaza killed more this week than Hamas rockets have in 20 years
A Newsweek review of data compiled by Israel's foreign ministry has found at least 16 people whose deaths were officially linked to rockets fired by Hamas.

SFC Stephen H. - Yes Israel seems so accepting when they've killed more people in Gaza this last week than Hamas has in 20 years. So very accepting of a partition...after driving people into Gaza and expecting 2 million people to live there. Then continuing to try to bomb them out of existence...smh.
