Ambroise Paré.

He was a 16th-century French barber-surgeon who introduced the use of ligatures to tie off arteries during amputations and promoted soothing ointments instead of cauterizing wounds with boiling oil. (Jenner developed vaccination; Nightingale reformed nursing and hospital sanitation.)
