Charles George Lambie FRSE MC (24 July 1891 – 28 August 1961) was a physician of Scots descent.

In 1917 he returned to active service on the Somme, rising to the rank of Captain and winning a Military Cross for bravery in 1918.
He received his doctorate (MD) in the same year[5] with his thesis The locus of insulin action,[6] and was also awarded a Lister Fellowship.
Here he worked with his predecessor Professor Harold R. Dew to completely reformulate the academic curriculum in the Medical Faculty.
He retired from the university in 1957 and took up a committee role in the New South Wales branch of the British Medical Association, then under the chairmanship of Sir William Morrow.
