Olive Scott FRCP (née Sharpe; 25 June 1924 – 4 March 2007) was an English paediatric cardiologist.
[3] Scott was a junior doctor at Liverpool, where she worked with the cardiologist John Hay and developed an interest in children's congenital heart defects.
[3] In 1966, Scott was appointed by Killingbeck Hospital as a consultant paediatric cardiologist; she was the first person in Britain to hold such a position.
[3] She also understood the importance of parents being involved in their child's medical issues and wanted them to understand information about congenital heart disease.
The British Heart Foundation assisted Scott in creating a pamphlet that contained educational pictures and written information about the disease their child might have.
