About Rachel May
Ever since my high school anatomy class, I knew I loved science. To make it a career I would enjoy, I knew I would need to find a way to blend science with my love for interacting with and getting to know people. I see medicine as the ultimate intersection of science and interpersonal relationships; and I see primary care as a way to carry those relationships through so many of my patients' life stages. This long-term continuity allows me and my patients to build trust and allows me to get to know my patients' interests, priorities, and passions beyond their medical care.
Throughout physician assistant school, I was always more interested in learning how to prevent patients from developing illnesses and how a holistic approach can be useful in achieving better health. I have been fortunate to see firsthand how changes in diet, exercise, and mental health can impact a person's well-being. Much of medicine is reactionary, but I love primary care because we have a chance to alter the trajectory of patients' health by preventing disease and complications.
As a board-certified physician assistant, I work hard to truly listen to my patients, understand their concerns, and help them be a part of deciding what modifications will work for them. Some particular interests of mine outside of preventive care include women's health, mental health, and managing chronic conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure. I especially enjoy helping people quit smoking, which was the focus of my master's thesis.
I grew up near Boston, Massachusetts, but I fell in love with South Carolina while attending the University of South Carolina. I am now a huge Gamecocks fan, and love college and professional football. I have golfed since childhood, and I'm eager to check out all the amazing courses Charleston has to offer. Running, reading, and spending time with family and friends up and down the East Coast are also passions of mine.
