Johann Nepomuk von Ringseis (16 May 1785 – 22 May 1880) was a German physician born in Schwarzhofen, Oberpfalz. He received his education at the University of Landshut, where he was a student of Andreas Röschlaub (1768-1835).
Afterwards he furthered his studies in Vienna (1812–1813) and Berlin (1814–1815), and in 1816 moved to Munich as a personal physician to Crown Prince Ludwig.
In 1818 he was appointed Medizinalrat (medical health officer) to the district of Isarkreis.
In 1826 he became a professor at the Medical Faculty of the University of Munich. Ringseis took a religious approach towards medicine, and believed that the origin of disease was rooted in "original sin".
