Leonardo Hagel Arredondo (18 September 1932 – 18 September 2004) was a Chilean surgeon and politician of the Socialist Party, later joining the PPD.

He was born in San Felipe on 18 September 1932, the son of Osvaldo Hagel and Josefina Arredondo. On 22 December 1954, he married Moralina Álvarez; the couple had five children.

He completed his secondary education at Instituto Nacional Barros Arana (INBA) and earned his medical degree as a surgeon from the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile. He practiced medicine in Copiapó.
