Florence Jessie Murray (February 16, 1894 – April 14, 1975) was a Canadian medical doctor, missionary, and professor who worked in Korea for over forty years, notable for her pioneering contributions as a woman in the male-dominated field of medicine, dedication to service during World War II and the Korean War, and innovation in improving medical care in Korea, specifically in treating tuberculosis and leprosy. Her leadership of the Severance hospital contributed to the development of Yonsei University. Additionally, the hospital she founded and led, the Wonju United Christian Hospital became the Yonsei University Mirae Campus. Recognized with several honorary degrees, she permanently returned to Canada in 1969, where she continued to share her passion for service through domestic projects and her memoirs.
