Peter McBride FRSE (1854–1946) was a Scottish physician and expert on the larynx. In 1897 he was first to identify the malignant granuloma of the nose known as Granuloma Syndrome[1] or granulomatosis with polyangiitis.[2] Edinburgh's McBride Lecture was named in his honour in 1979.[3]

He opened the first Otorhinolaryngology (ORL) Department in Scotland at the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary. This is commonly known as an Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) Department.[4]
