Antonio Fernando de Medrano Langarica y Santa Cruz (Santa Cruz de Campezo, Álava – Madrid, 19 November 1666) was a 17th-century Basque barber-surgeon and a pioneer of medical professionalism in Spain who practiced in Madrid during the reign of Philip IV. A member of the respected Medrano family, he provided medical and surgical services, including bloodletting and minor operations, at a time when barber-surgeons played a crucial role in healthcare, particularly in rural areas. His professional standing is reflected in his estate, which included an extensive collection of surgical instruments, fine furniture, silverware, and a notable personal library containing medical, legal, and literary works. His will and posthumous inventory provide valuable insights into the material culture and medical practices of the period.
