Rebecca Hayes, MD

I’m passionate about caring for the whole patient and their family.

I'm board certified in family medicine. I specialize in providing care for the health and well-being of the whole family, from infants to adults. I’m the assistant specialty medical director of Atrium Health CMC Elizabeth Family Medicine.

I chose to study family medicine because of the opportunity to treat patients and families together. With this approach, healthcare can address the whole person in the context of their unique family environment.

I received my medical degree from the Medical University of South Carolina and followed that with a residency at Naval Hospital Bremerton and a University of North Carolina Faculty Development Fellowship.

I use research to help improve outcomes and quality of life for my patients. For example, I received an NFL (National Football League) Inspire Change grant to increase breast cancer screening in underserved populations.

In my free time, I love playing and traveling with my husband, three boys and two giant dogs. I am also an avid reader.
