Louis-Eugène-Aduire Parrot (November 11, 1871 – November 18, 1948) was a Canadian physician and politician.

Born in Sainte-Emmélie, near Lotbinière, Quebec, Parrot studied at the Séminaire de Québec and the Université Laval. He became a physician in 1897 and practised general medicine in Deschaillons from 1897 to 1905. He did a surgery internship in Paris in 1905 and 1906. Returning to Quebec, he was a physician and surgeon in Fraserville (Rivière-du-Loup) from 1907 to 1939.[1]
