About Rebecca Pereira

Rebecca obtained her Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from UMass Dartmouth. She also holds B.S. in Biology and Nursing.  

She wanted to elevate her knowledge and ability to play an even greater role in patients’ health journeys and felt that a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree was the perfect combination of interests in clinical and research. Having worked in cardiac units for many years as a nurse, she realized that cardiac care was her passion.

Her belief is that the best tool a provider can utilize is to really listen to their patient and involve the patient as much as possible in the plan of care. She believes that an honest and nonjudgmental provider-patient partnership promotes well-being and good health outcomes. She always treats her patients as if they were her own family member and when there is something she does not know, she will work diligently to work to find an answer. 

To her, Southcoast Health means home. Having grown up in the south coast she moved back to set down roots after having lived away for a while. She started working in the Southcoast Health system as an RN years ago and has never left. Having stayed through the pandemic and watching her colleagues and coworkers support each other is something that she can’t really put into words. Southcoast Health offers amazing services to its diverse community and it’s something she always wants to be a part of.

When not at work she enjoys spending time with her family, spinning, reading, playing the piano, camping, and going for long walks outdoors. 

Watching her children learn, grow, and find their own paths in the world brings her joy.

Provider Ratings

Why aren’t there any ratings?

We do not have a rating for this provider for one of the following reasons:

  1. Provider was newly added to our survey process and has not yet received the minimum number (30) of survey returns.  Check back soon for results!
  2. If this provider’s biography page does not specify practicing at Southcoast Physicians Group or a Southcoast hospital site (Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital), he/she is affiliated with Southcoast Health Network but not employed by Southcoast Physicians Group.  Our affiliates are not included in our survey process.
  3. If this provider’s biography page specifies practicing at Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital, without reference to an outpatient practice, he/she delivers care in the inpatient hospital setting only; inpatient surveys do not include questions about individual providers.

Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings.  Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.

Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.

Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.

How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and  Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office.  The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
