• Comment: Looked at the references. This is a WP:BLP, but no real WP:SECONDARY sourcing to prove he is notable. I'm not seeing much in the way of coverage to satisfy WP:NPROF, WP:NACADEMIC or WP:BIO. Potentially needs rewritten by somebody else as its currently subject is non-notable and doesn't say why he is notable. Senior obviously, doing his job well, but don't see how he is notable at this time. scope_creep^Talk 19:31, 28 April 2026 (UTC)

Professor Tim Orchard is a British healthcare official who is chief executive of Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, one of the largest NHS Trusts in London. He is a consultant physician and Professor of gastroenterology at Imperial College London and is renowned for his ongoing research and teaching in the field of inflammatory bowel disease.

Under his leadership at the Trust, he has been a vocal campaigner for the rebuild of St Mary's Hospital which is part of the national 'New Hospital Programme'.^[1][2] The Trust has the biggest backlog maintenance liability of any NHS organisation with an estimated £7m spent annually on repairs at St Mary's to stay operational.^[3][4]

Orchard was born at Charing Cross Hospital at the former site on the Strand. Orchard was educated at Trinity School, an independent boys' school in Croydon.^[5] Orchard's father was a gastroenterologist^[6]. He undertook his undergraduate medical degree at Corpus Christi College, University of Cambridge and completed his clinical training at Charing Cross and Westminster Medical School.^[7]

After completing medical school, Orchard was a research fellow at the University of Oxford with Professor Derek Jewell, and has continued his research interests in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and extra-intestinal manifestations (EIMs).^[8]

During his academic career at Imperial College London, Orchard and his colleagues were part of an international effort to make better use of metabolic analysis and genetics in the treatment of inflammatory gut conditions like ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.^[9] His research has contributed towards several national guidelines for the management of inflammatory bowel disease in adults^[10], and to NICE guidelines on spondyloarthritis in the UK.

Orchard joined Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust as a registrar in 2000. He was later medical director and divisional director for medicine and integrated care. Orchard was appointed as the chief executive of Imperial College Healthcare in June 2018.^[11] In 2023–24, Orchard was listed as one of the highest-paid Trust chief executives in the country.

During COVID-19, he led Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust's five hospitals operationally through the pandemic, which involved reorganising services and staff to meet the demand of positive-covid cases.^[12] He spoke publicly on the challenges faced by the Trust's hospitals during this period, including increasing ICU capacity with limited infrastructure and the rollout of personal protective equipment.^[13]

He was also chair of The Shelford Group in 2023, a collaboration between ten of the largest teaching and research NHS hospital trusts in England.^[14]

In October 2025, he was announced as the new incoming chief executive for the North West London acute NHS Trusts, which will be the biggest hospital group in England.^[15]
