Dr. Harry F. Bisel (1918 - 1994) was a pioneering American oncologist working in the field of medical oncology.
Dr. Harry Bisel, along with Doctors Fred Ansfield, Herman Freckman, Arnoldus Goudsmit, Robert Talley, William Wilson, and Jane Wright, was one of the founding members of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). This group of pioneering doctors, through the formation of ASCO, is largely credited with the development of modern American medical or clinical oncology.

He was in the United States Naval Reserve from 1942 to 1978, and on active duty from 1943 to 1947. During WW 2, he was flight surgeon and was awarded three battle stars for action in the Pacific.
