Surgeon Dr Mary Beth Hughes was awesome and her and her team attended to me very well and her Nurse and Medical assistant Kayla shout out. But also to My Endocrinologist EVMS Dr Okigbo who referred me to Dr Hughes.. Thank youll for making me feel informed and relaxed during my surgery at Sentara Norfolk General... the Nurses.. Care Partners..and on call doctors were above and beyond during their care for me... one nurse even made sure doing my walks I got a great view of the sunset from my room...and what view is very scenic ...food was also good and as large as their campus is lots of guides to help you around..

The Staff are very pleasant & friendly. Some of the residents need to learn better bedside manners! After all this is a learning experience. This is one of the best hospitals in the SE Virginia's area. all the Nurse's I had were very good, Raven, Kadajah, America, Audrey, Ashley, Snanna, Ly, Comfort, Sean, Austin, I'm sorry if I forgot some I had so many, but everyone on the 8th floor! Dr. Carver's team & Dr. Collins all of you hold a special place in my β€οΈ π π & I want you to know that I really appreciate everything you all have done to get me healthy in my time of need!

The best hospital Iβve ever been in in my 44 years. Every single person I came into contact with was very friendly, polite and helpful. The hospital itself was beautiful, clean and welcoming. Everything is new, from the beds to the parking garages. Very high quality hospital overall. I would highly recommend this hospital. The cafeteria was simply amazing as well. I donβt have one bad or negative thing to say about it. My son was there for three days and Iβm so thankful he was taken to this hospital. Traffic getting there and parking can be rough but I promise it is worth it

Even thought the communication could have been better on what they wanted to do when we were in the ER the experience as whole was saved by the surgery team and nurses. For explaining in detail the process and what we may or may not expect. Everything went smoothly with my boyfriends surgery.

On May 6, I had a fall with injuries and was transported to the ED, I was treated by incredibly caring and professional staff, the ED physician Dr. Christina Smith, she helped to keep me informed of all tests, xrays, CTs, lab work and results, I was anxious because I was visiting family and away from home. Dr. Smith and nurses Daniel and Belinda were so kind and treated my pain and other needs quickly and explained all medications when given. I am truly greatful to them.
