before this medicine was scheduled in 1985. He then completed a Psychiatry
residency at a Columbia program in New York. Scott studied cross-cultural
psychiatry and completed a child/adolescent psychiatry fellowship at the
University of New Mexico. Scott has published four books on holistic and integrative
mental health including the first textbook for this field in 2001.
