Crossword Genius

Doctor seen in ICI, surrounded by Scots family (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

clinician

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'doctor' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in ici surrounded by scots family' is the wordplay.
'surrounded by' indicates putting letters inside.
'scots family' becomes 'clan' (I've seen this before. I am not sure about the 'scots' bit.).
'in'+'ici'='inici'
'inici' put into 'clan' is 'CLINICIAN'.

'seen' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for clinician that I've seen is " Doctor working directly with patients".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
