The Tropical & Travellers Medical Clinic was established in 1997 by British doctor Dr Gavin Scott and is dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of the diseases that tourists and travellers are likely to encounter in a tropical country. The clinic is recommended in most travel guides to Cambodia and is licensed by the Cambodian Ministry of Health.

Dr. Scott comes from a family of doctors. He graduated from the Universities of St. Andrews and Manchester in the U.K., obtained postgraduate diplomas in gynaecology (Royal College of Gynaecologists & Obstetricians, London), and sexual diseases (Liverpool University), and is certified in General Practice. He also has a certificate in Clinical Tropical Medicine from Mahidol University in Bangkok.

As a volunteer United Nations physician in 1992 he set up the UN Dispensary in Phnom Penh.
