Worst hospital....do not go here.
There are so many reason why this hospital sucks. I can’t even begin to explain...
I don’t understand why this place is still open and I’m sure many people are taking some form of legal action against them. All the bad reviews are on point, they are 100% accurate.
So please take this as a warning and don’t go there.

This Sentara spoils the name Sentara
Anytime I’ve gone to any other Sentara place they are all friendly and professional.
Here the staff is rude, they don’t listen
The staff in the Orthopaedic department as well. This whole hospital should be thrown away....start fresh because also if you’re an adult with an invisible disability save yourself and don’t go here! You’ll leave here feeling depressed and maybe even suicidal. This place shouldn’t even be around they have no respect for people with invisible disabilities,And make you feel as if just because they can’t see something wrong, that there’s truly nothing wrong.

Grant-Orthopaedic and the entire ER staff should all have a month or longer education on handling people who have trouble communicating.
I’m tired of feeling bad just for needing medical help.

Go to Virginia or anywhere else just not ELIZABETH CITY

I wish I could give 0 stars. I took my 6 year old son to get evaluated due to being on the wrong meds. I told them exactly what I needed from them for my child. After hours of just sitting and them putting him on 24 hr watch they put an order for involuntary commitment. HE IS 6 YEARS OLD!!! They banned all visitors from seeing him including me his mother when I am the one who tried to get him help in the first place and have deputies 24 hours outside his door that he cant come out of and only coloring and TV is allowed. Again....he is a child. They are trying to send him to a facility 3 hours away without my consent. All I tried to do was adjust his meds. And they want to hold him for nothing and days because they don't have the right staff or specialists until Monday. NO ON CALL SPECIALISTS? THIS HAS BEEN A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE FOR OUR WHOLE FAMILY AND MY 6 YEAR OLD SON WILL REMEMBER THIS ALWAYS AS HE GROWS. NEVER EVER TRY TO GET THEM TO HELP YOU. THEY WILL TURN AGAINST YOU AND TAKE YOUR CHILD AGAINST YOUR WILL.

First one positive comment. There are some great folks there who try to do a good job and are what you’d expect in health care. To them my sincere thanks. My overall experience was very poor because of inadequate floor staffing and a non responsive Hospitalist (Dr). This caused a lot of stress and ultimately led to being moved to a different hospital for treatment.

I went in a few nights ago because I had heard a loud pop in my knee and fell straight down immediately. After sometime waiting they came got me and did an x-ray found nothing. After a few hours of waiting in the room a nurse came in told me nothing was found on the x-ray. I requested an MRI and was denied immediately. I'm going to the hospital in edenton nc for an mri and if they tell me what I already know by doing the mri I will bring a lawsuit against Albemarle medical center for lack of treatment for a serious injury
