Phillip Scott, MD

As the oldest of five boys, Dr. Scott has always had a sense of responsibility for the children around him. In high school and college he spent his summers as a counselor at kid’s camps, so it was a rather natural progression to continue working with children as his career in medicine unfolded. He often gets a goofy smile or comment from a child that brightens his day and reminds him why he chose pediatrics.

When he is not at Cook Children’s he enjoys hiking, skating, drawing/painting, and movies. His church community is also an important aspect of his life outside of work.

Dr. Scott is married to a wonderful and supportive wife and they have one son. Dr. Scott says, “They remind me every day of the beauty in life.”
