Doctor Keith Hughes was a Human medical practitioner who had a relationship with Beverly Crusher. (TNG novel: Q & A)
Keith Hughes was born in the early 2350s. After primary schooling, Hughes entered the Starfleet Medical Academy, serving a year as a resident while Crusher was in charge of Starfleet Medical during 2365. During his time as her student, Hughes developed a romantic attraction for Beverly.
Sometime during his service to Starfleet, Hughes was assigned as the USS Hood as a surgeon. The Hood suffered heavy and repeated losses during the Dominion War, including the death of Hughes's wife and young daughter during one battle. The loss pained Doctor Hughes enough that he decided to leave Starfleet in order to escape the violence.
In 2379, Doctor Hughes arrived to Tezwa aboard the Syrinx to offer aid to the rebuilding planet. It was here that he was reunited with Beverly Crusher, revealing his feelings for her, and starting a relationship. (TNG - A Time to... novel: A Time to Heal)
