Emil Fischbacher (Chinese:巴醫生) (1902-1933) was a British Protestant Christian missionary to Xinjiang. He served with the China Inland Mission.

Emil was a doctor, and as soon as he arrived at his post in Urumqi he worked himself to death caring for wounded people from a Muslim rebellion. Urumqi was at that time under seige. He contracted typhus and died on May 1933.
