Samuel Gottlieb Scholtzius (or Schultz/Scholtz, fl.1649/50–1711) practised physics and medicine in Delft, Rotterdam and The Hague. He contributed (1675) to the album amicorum of the Sedan bookdealer Nicolas Chevalier (1661–1720). It might be conjectured that Scholtzius was asked by the Van der Spijck family to examine and treat the ill and perhaps already bedridden Spinoza. Scholtzius was a relative of Hendrick van der Spijck's brother through the latter's marriage with Susanna Micheel, the sister of Scholtzius’s wife Catharina Micheel See: Fasel Kampen, 1961; Garber, 2005, passim.
