Sentara-CarePlex

Aug. 20, 2018 - Sentara CarePlex Hospital was ranked No. 6 in Hampton Roads and No. 20 in Virginia, according to U.S. News & World Report’s “Best Hospitals” edition.
This is the first time that the CarePlex has achieved a state and regional ranking, the company said, attributing the recognition to high performing programs in heart failure and joint replacement.
Sentara dominated the regional rankings with five of the top six listings in Hampton Roads. Flagship hospital Sentara Norfolk General also received national rankings for its heart; diabetes and endocrinology; and nephrology programs.
