Robert Kerr, M.D., (?-1918) was a Scottish physician, missionary, judge, and author. Sent to Morocco by the Jewish Committee of the English Presbyterian Church to work as both a medical and religious missionary, Kerr provided various types of medical care to both Jewish and Muslim people. He served in Morocco for 30 years and provided aid to a diverse group of patients. The bulk of his missionary work is recorded in his novels Pioneering in Morocco: A Record of Seven Years’ Medical Mission Work in the Palace and the Hut and Morocco After Twenty-Five Years.
