Beaufort Memorial expands women's health with new OBGYN – blufftontoday.com

With the addition of an experienced, board-certified OBGYN to the team, Beaufort Memorial is continuing to expand access to much-needed women’s health services in the Lowcountry.
Dr. Rebecca A. Keith has joined Beaufort Memorial Obstetrics & Gynecology Specialists, bringing more than 30 years of clinical expertise – including several years practicing on Hilton Head Island and in Hardeeville.
She will provide comprehensive, patient-centered care for women of all ages at the practice’s Beaufort and Okatie locations, and with a special interest in high-risk obstetrics, she is committed to creating a respectful, supporting environment for patients at every stage of life.
“Dr. Keith’s experience and patient-focused approach make her a tremendous asset to Beaufort Memorial and to meeting the growing demand for women’s healthcare services in our region,” said Beaufort Memorial President and CEO Russell Baxley. “We are pleased to welcome her back to the Lowcountry.”
Dr. Keith decided to pursue a career in medicine at a young age, and she earned her medical degree from Indiana University and completed her post-graduate training at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis.
Although much of Dr. Keith’s early was spent in the Lowcountry serving Hilton Head Island, Bluffton and Hardeeville, she saw patients for many years in Greenville. Throughout that career, she has delivered more than 5,000 babies and built lasting relationships with her patients and their families.
“I enjoy getting to know my patients and their families, and, working together, we find individualized solutions,” she said. “I want my patients to feel comfortable, heard and understood, no matter their needs.”
At Beaufort Memorial, Dr. Keith will provide general obstetric and gynecologic care, including diagnosis and treatment of common women’s health conditions. She is also passionate about supporting young women through their first pelvic exams and serving as a trusted, knowledgeable resource for education and guidance.
Outside of work, Dr. Keith enjoys spending time with her two adult children, Ryan and Rachel, traveling and participating in outdoor activities like hiking, canoeing and horseback riding.
At the practice, Dr. Keith joins board-certified physicians Drs. Tiffany Bersani, Curtis J. Elam and Tempest Allen, as well as certified nurse practitioner Melissa Mesenburg, certified physician assistant Peyton Erb McManus and certified nurse midwife Catherine Tambroni-Parker.
With locations in the Beaufort Medical Plaza, at 989 Ribaut Road in Beaufort, and Okatie Medical Pavilion, at 122 Okatie Center Boulevard North, the practice provides the full range of women’s health services, including comprehensive obstetrical and gynecological care for patients at every stage of their lives. The latest screening and diagnostic technologies, among them state-of-the art digital ultrasound, are available in both locations.
