Draga Ljočić Milošević (22 February 1855 – 5 November 1926) was a Serbian physician and feminist. She became the first Serbian woman to be accepted at the University of Zürich in Switzerland. She worked as a medical assistant in the army and became the first Serbian female doctor in medicine. She was also a leading figure within the newly founded Serbian women's rights movement. She was the first female doctor in the Balkan Wars and the Great War, and one of only a dozen women working as doctors in Europe at that time.
