Sir William Henry Bennett, KCVO, FRCS (1852 – 24 December 1931)^[1] was a British surgeon.

Bennett was a Wiltshireman, the son of William Francis Bennett, of Chilmark.

He held several administrative posts in medical establishments, including at St George's Hospital, where he was a senior surgeon.

Bennett introduced London doctors to massage as a treatment modality for new fractures in 1898^[2] and he established a department of massage at St. George´s. However, his most important contribution to medical science was a paper in which he introduced the surgical procedure of posterior rhizotomy for the relief of spasmodic pain in a lower extremity.^[3]

He was knighted as a Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order (KCVO) in July 1901,^[4] for services rendered to sick and wounded returning from the Boer War, South Africa, 1900–02, for which he was publicly thanked by Lord Roberts.^[1]

The following year he was on 8 May 1902 appointed a Knight of Grace of the Order of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem in England (KStJ).^[5]

During the War 1914–1919 he relinquished all private affairs to take up work with British Red Cross and the Order of St John^[1]

Bennett married first, in 1882, Isabel Dickinson (died 1911), daughter of Thomas Dickinson.^[6]

After his first wife´s death, he married second, in 1914, Gladys Florence Stewart Hartigan, daughter of Rev. Allen S. Hartigan^[1]
