Isabel Zendal Gómez (* c. 1773 in Santa Mariña de Parada, Ordes, A Coruña, Spain; † after 1811 in Puebla de los Ángeles, Mexico) was a Spanish nurse and rector of the orphanage at the Hospital de Caridad in A Coruña. She was the only woman to participate in the Royal Philanthropic Vaccination Expedition of Francisco Xavier Balmis, beginning in 1803. The expedition’s goal was to bring the smallpox vaccine, developed shortly before in England, to the Spanish colonies and to initiate vaccination campaigns there. Isabel Zendal Gómez was responsible for the care of the children who were taken on the expedition as carriers of the live vaccine.
