Sentara Obici Hospital

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.

Five Sentara hospitals just earned the 2026 Patient Safety Excellence Award by Healthgrades, demonstrating safer care and better outcomes.

This recognition places them among the top 10% of hospitals nationwide for patient safety, highlighting a strong track record of reducing complications and prioritizing safe, high-quality care. ✨

It also means patients treated at these hospitals are far less likely to experience preventable safety events, with safety built into every step of the patient experience.

Congratulations to the teams whose commitment to patient safety continues to set the standard. 💙
