About Mr Wale Olarinde

Mr Wale Olarinde is a Consultant ENT, Head & Neck Surgeon with more than three decades of medical experience. He qualified in Medicine from the University of Ibadan in 1991 and subsequently completed specialist training in otolaryngology and head and neck surgery in the UK. He holds Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons in Otorhinolaryngology and Otology and has practised in this field since 1996.

His clinical practice covers general adult and paediatric ENT, with particular interests in head and neck surgery, including benign and malignant disease, thyroid and parathyroid surgery, salivary gland disorders, and laryngeal and voice conditions. He contributes his thyroid and parathyroid surgical results to the national audit run by the British Association of Endocrine Surgeons, of which he is a member.

He received further sub-specialist training in head and neck cancer surgery at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital in Sheffield and undertook additional training in laser resection of head and neck cancers with Professor Petra Ambrosch in Kiel, Germany.

His approach to patient care centres on thorough specialist assessment and clear, straightforward management options, with patients actively involved in treatment decisions. Alongside his clinical practice, he contributes to medical education as an honorary senior clinical lecturer and examiner at the University of Sheffield medical school. He is also an examiner for the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

We had a very positive experience with Dr Olarinde. He was attentive, approachable and had excellent bedside manners. He took the time to listen carefully to our concerns, understood our expectations and carried out a thorough examination of our son. He explained his findings clearly and provided a detailed plan for the next steps, which gave us confidence and reassurance. We particularly appreciated how well he handled our son and how considerate he was throughout the appointment. We felt listened to and taken seriously. Overall, an excellent experience, and we would happily recommend Dr Olarinde.
