- Sir Raymond Henry Payne Crawfurd FRCP (9 November 1865 – 9 March 1938) was a British physician and writer who, in addition to being active in post graduate medical education, took up numerous clinical and administrative responsibilities, including Registrar and examiner to the Royal College of Physicians (RCP), the Dean of Kings College Hospital Medical School, now King's College London GKT School of Medical Education (GKT), and Chair of Epsom College Council. After studying classics at Oxford and medicine at King's College, he became a physician and also lectured in pathology and materia medica. As Dean and then later Emeritus Lecturer in Medicine, he was a major participant in the move of King's College Hospital from Lincoln's Inn Fields to Denmark Hill in 1933, an achievement for which he was awarded a knighthood. Simultaneously, in his roles on its council, he raised the profile of Epsom College, secured the admission of women to the benefits of the Royal Medical Foundation, improved pay for masters and founded a building dedicated to learning biology. An illness in his early forties left him with mobility difficulties, causing him to stop clinical practice and turn to writing a number of history of medicine articles and historical books, including one on the controversial death of Charles II. He gave the FitzPatrick Lectures in 1911 and 1912, the first which was expanded into one of the most comprehensive accounts of the royal touch and scrofula (the King's evil) and the second into a book about Plague in art and literature. Throughout the early 20th century, he remained consistently involved with the History of Medicine Section of the Royal Society of Medicine (RSM), becoming the section's president from 1916 to 1918.
