'My desire for intellectual exploration led me from a career in medicine to active membership on the investment team at Fairview. The discipline and training that I received as a physician helps me absorb large amounts of disparate information, determine what really matters, and focus on those things that actually drive superior performance. Making a diagnosis to prescribe treatment involves a skill also critical to assessing people, teams, and business opportunities — the ability to truly listen. So, I often remind myself to “bite my tongue” and listen with intent.'

Dr. Olofinboba is a Managing Partner at Fairview and is involved in a broad set of investment, business development and governance activities at the firm. Additionally, he serves on the advisory boards of several private equity partnerships in Fairview’s fund portfolios.

Prior to joining Fairview, Dr. Olofinboba was an Engagement Manager at McKinsey & Company, serving U.S. and global clients in healthcare and private equity. He has also practiced medicine as a board-certified internist/hospitalist and was an assistant professor at the University of Connecticut Health Center in Farmington, CT.

Dr. Olofinboba received his medical degree from the University of Ibadan, Nigeria and an MBA in Financial Management from the MIT Sloan School of Management, where he was a Robert Toigo Fellow.

He serves on the boards of directors for Liberty Bank and Hartford HealthCare.
