Dr Fikki Orekoya is a highly experienced Dermatology Consultant with a strong background in both adult and paediatric dermatology, dermatological surgery, and medical education. She completed her specialist dermatology training at Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, where she gained extensive experience in managing complex dermatological conditions. During this time, she was actively involved in research, teaching, audits, and service improvement initiatives.
Throughout her career across multiple NHS trusts, Dr Orekoya has supervised junior doctors, contributed to educational programmes, and supported the development of clinical processes and standard operating procedures linked to dermatology pathways. Her academic achievements include a First-Class BSc in Pathology and an MBChB in Medicine. She also has a well-established portfolio in dermatology education, including developing learning resources, delivering regional teaching, and contributing to audit and research projects.

In her new role, Dr Orekoya will bring this breadth of experience to support the clinical direction and ongoing development of our dermatology service. Over the coming weeks, she will be meeting teams across the service to gain an understanding of our current pathways, priorities, and ways of working as she settles into the role.
