William Wilson Rorke M.B. Ch.B (17 June 1875 – 16 April 1962) was a British orthodox physician who converted to homeopathy, to become a Consultant Physician for Nervous Disorders and Tutor at the London Homeopathic Hospital and, from 1921, a member of the British Homeopathic Society.

During his time at the London Homeopathic Hospital, Rorke instructed many student homeopaths, including Dr. Grace H. Newell. He was also instrumental in bridging the lay-professional divide. Most notably, Rorke was the teacher of lay homeopath Thomas Lackenby Maughan, and it is believed that Rorke also taught many other lay homeopaths, including Frank Parker Wood.

In April 1909, Rorke was awarded his Bachelors of Medicine and Surgery, with commendation and first class certificate, and passed the examinations in midwifery, from the University of Glasgow.
