Edward Latham Ormerod, FRS, MD (27 August 1819 – 18 March 1873) was an English physician and amateur entomologist.
He was educated at Rugby School until 1838, was a student at St Bartholomew's Hospital, London until October 1841, and then went up to Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge.
He returned to St Bartholomew's in 1846 to work in the post-mortem room as a demonstrator until health problems obliged him to move to Brighton in 1847 to practise as a physician.
He was elected a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians[1] and in 1851 delivered their Gulstonian Lectures on the subject of "Valvular disease of the heart".
One of his sons was the physician Sir Arthur Latham Ormerod, Oxford's first Medical Officer for Health.
