John Bradmore (d. 1412) was a surgeon based in London from at least 1377. He was appointed an overseer of surgery in the City of London by the mayor in 1390. From at least 1399 he was associated with the royal household. Bradmore married twice, first to Margaret, with whom he had a daughter named Agnes, and second to Katherine. John Bradmore died on 27 January 1412 and was buried in the church of St. Botolph without Aldersgate.

Manuscript (incomplete) on paper and parchment of Philomena, a treatise on surgery written by John Bradmore, here in Middle English translation. Text discusses anatomy, apostumes (abscesses), wounds and ulcers, fractures and dislocations, other diseases treatable by surgery, and includes an antidotary and a summary of contents. Book I on anatomy and the opening of book II on surgery are wanting; another leaf wanting between fols. 59 and 60. Present manuscript begins in book II, chapter 4. Includes an account of how Bradmore saved the life of the young Prince of Wales (Prince Hal, the future King Henry V) after the Battle of Shrewsbury in 1403.

Also includes a short text on bloodletting, fols. 85r-87v; an unidentified "tretys of mynd," about mind and memory, fols. 234r-239r; and recipes for ointments, plasters, etc., ending imperfectly, fols. 239v-241v.
