Sentara Obici Hospital

Sentara Obici Hospital, a 175-bed acute care hospital, is located on Godwin Boulevard in Suffolk. As the community grows, so does Sentara Obici Hospital.

While it opened its state-of-the-art facility in 2002 and merged with Sentara Healthcare in 2006, the hospital continues a 50-year tradition of providing residents of Suffolk and Western Tidewater with patient-centered care in an environment that focuses on healing. In June 2010, Sentara Obici Hospital opened a new three-story, 64,380 square-foot wing with all private beds serving orthopedic, medical and surgical patients.

The MRI upgrade at Sentara BelleHarbour is complete! 🎉

The new next-generation scanner delivers sharper images and cuts some scan times in half. A prostate scan that took 90 minutes? Now takes about 45!

That's a big difference for patient comfort and getting results to your doctor faster. It also means shorter wait times for our patients.

A big thanks to our BelleHarbour radiology team for the work they do every day and for supporting this transition: MRI technologists Kenneth Holley, Jenny Flanagan, Alicia Duffy and Travis Winston, and Manager of Radiology Daryl Minggia. 👏

The Advanced Imaging Center at Sentara BelleHarbour is open seven days a week, 6:15 a.m. to 11 p.m. To schedule an appointment, call 757-983-0010.

MRIs are in high demand. That's why we're upgrading the MRI scanner at Sentara BelleHarbour with $1.3 million in next-generation technology.

What does that mean for you? A broader range of available scans, sharper images, faster scans, a wider bore to ease claustrophobia, and more appointment availability.

The Advanced Imaging Center at Sentara BelleHarbour is now open seven days a week from 6:15 a.m. to 11 p.m. The MRI upgrade will be complete in April. To schedule an appointment, call 757-983-0010.

We’re making our hospital safer for patients, visitors, and staff. 🏥🔒

Our Concealed Weapon Detection system has now expanded from the Emergency Department to our main entrance. The system screens for fi****ms, knives, chemical mace, and other weapons to help keep our campus secure and welcoming for everyone.

If a weapon is detected, our security officers will ask the visitor to return it to their vehicle before entering the hospital. Once inside, visitors will be asked to show ID at the reception desk to receive a visitor badge.

Thank you for partnering with us to maintain a weapons-free campus and ensure a safe, respectful experience for all who walk through our doors. 💙⚕️

All Sentara emergency departments are currently seeing a spike in visits for flu and respiratory illnesses.

If you're feeling sick with mild to moderate symptoms, you may not need the emergency department — and there are other options that can help you feel better sooner.

Sheriff David Miles & the Suffolk Virginia Sheriff's Office stopped by last week to surprise our extended-stay patients with handmade Thanksgiving cards created by homeschool students from Classical Conversations Downtown Suffolk. Simple gestures, but the kind that brought big smiles to patients spending the holidays in the hospital. 🫶🍁

We're so grateful for the kindness that our community shares so freely! 🧡
