Antoine Joseph Jobert de Lamballe (17 December 1799 – 19 April 1867[1]) was a French surgeon.

He was born at Matignon, studied medicine at Paris, and in 1830 became surgeon at the Hôpital Saint-Louis.

Jobert was a brilliant and resourceful operator, best known for his masterly use of autoplastie, the repair of diseased parts by healthy neighboring tissue, and especially for the operation which he styled élitroplastie, an autoplastic cure of vaginal fistula.
