Preben Hertoft (born 5 January 1928), Danish psychiatrist and professor in medical sexology, senior doctorate in medicine.

After the death of his mentor Kirsten Auken, Hertoft worked over 40 years as a sexologist doing research, treatment, counseling and education. In 1986 he founded the first medical centre for sexology in Denmark. Most of the time he had heterosexual and homosexual patients with sexual problems in therapy, but he also treated and counselled transvestites and pedophiles.

He is an elected fellow by the Society for the Scientific Study of Sex for outstanding contributions to the field.
