I'm gonna go with Fabri von Hilden who is considered the "father of German surgery". I know he was the first to recommend amputation above a diseased limb and in doing so was the first to shut off the circulation before amputation.

Or was it Abroise Pare the "father of French surgery"? He created the figure 8 suture...

Which came first?

Georgia, if she doesn't answer soon, she'll be disqualified. (From what, I have no idea, but she'll be disqualified.)

Fabry, 1560-1634. But Ambrose Pare (1517-1590) not only described the surgical ligation of vessels, but also congenital dislocation of the hip. However, the surgeon, particularly one afflicted with the reputation as "orthopaedic surgeon" was considered nothing more than "mechanician". Source
