Brigadier Ernest Bulmer, CBE, TD, FRCP, FRCPE (27 July 1900 – 2 June 1967), was an English physician and British Army officer whose service during World War II spanned significant campaigns, including the Battle of France, the Western Desert, and north-west Europe.
Born in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Bulmer was the son of Lilian (née Glover) and Septimus Bulmer, a rope machine manufacturer. He studied at the University of Edinburgh, earning his MBBS with second-class honors in 1922, and continued postgraduate studies in Paris. His medical career began at Birmingham General Hospital, where he became an assistant physician in 1925. By 1936, he was a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians. In 1927, he married Dr. Eileen Wake, with whom he had a son, Michael, who later became a biometrician.
Bulmer joined the 14th Birmingham Territorial Hospital in May 1939 as a major. During World War II, he served with the British Expeditionary Force and later in the Western Desert as head of the Medical Division of No. 2 General Hospital. Promoted to brigadier in 1944, he became consulting physician to the 21st Army Group. His contributions included managing wartime illnesses such as dysentery and combat fatigue. His service earned him several honors, including the CBE and the American Legion of Merit, presented personally by General Dwight D. Eisenhower.
After leaving the military in 1947, Bulmer became a senior consultant at Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham, until his retirement in 1965. He was a pioneer in gastroenterology, serving as the founding president of the Society of British Gastroenterologists in 1961. Bulmer also held leadership roles in medical societies and advisory boards, contributing significantly to hospital governance and civil defense planning.
Bulmer’s dedication to medicine and service culminated in his appointment as deputy lieutenant for Warwickshire in 1967. He passed away later that year in the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham on 2 June 1967
