 New Bern is particularly fortunate to have a wide range of top-notch professional healthcare services. The quality of life and the presence of an excellent medical center have attracted many physicians and speciallized health professionals to the area.
 With retirees continuously relocating to the New Bern area, additional healthcare services such as home-care professionals and cardiac rehabilitation services are expanding in New Bern. These services are not often available in towns of similar size.
The Craven Regional Medical Center offers a 313-bed facility and a comprehensive range of services not often found outside larger urban areas. An outstanding medical staff of more than 200 physicians, and support staff strive to combine the best of medical care with empathy for patients. All of the major specialties are represented by the medical center's physicians and staff. Cardiac care is a focal point, including interventional cardiology and cardiac surgery. It was the first eastern North Carolina hospital to offer cardiac rehabilitation on an outpatient basis. Likewise, the medical center's oncology services lead the area in chemotherapy and radiation therapy on an inpatient or outpatient basis, including support services.
 In addition, the medical center offers state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment and services at its New Bern Diagnostic Center, same-day surgery at New Bern Outpatient Surgery Center, a comprehensive medical rehabilitation center, and a mental health unit.
