Enrique Favez (born Enriqueta Favez) (c. 1791 – 1856) was a Swiss physician and surgeon who practiced medicine in the Napoleonic Wars and in Cuba. Although female assigned at birth, Favez self-identified and lived as a male surgeon for approximately four years in Cuba--a fact that culminated in a well-documented trial and expulsion from the Spanish territories. Following his expulsion, he lived the remainder of his life as Sor Magdalena, a nurse for Daughters of Charity Services in New Orleans, eventually rising to the position of Mother Superior for that congregation.
