Chalerm Prommas (Thai: เฉลิม พรมมาส, 19 August 1896 – 26 May 1975), also known by his former noble title as Luang Chaloem Khamphirawet (หลวงเฉลิมคัมภีรเวชช์), was a Thai medical doctor. He was a pioneering figure at Thailand's two oldest medical schools, Siriraj and Chulalongkorn, and went on to serve as the country's Minister of Public Health.
