I had some test being done at Sentara cardiology on Volvo Pkwy. Checkin was quick and easy. The…read morestaff was friendly. Their located on the 2nd floor. The office was clean and had plenty of seating in the waiting area. I was taken back for a stress test where you'll run on a treadmill until your heart reaches a certain level. They give you a bottle of water and crackers while you wait in a separate waiting area. The waiting area is private for the patients and family waiting between testing. If you can't get your heart rate up, they give you a medication to raise it quickly. They have a new machine that X-rays your heart while sitting in a special chair that rotates. The other locations don't have this option yet. The staff were all very friendly and kept me comfortable. I like this office and recommend them. Check them out!!

My Sentara Cardiologist alternates between this office in Chesapeake & the Fort Norfolk Plaza…read moreoffice, across Brambleton from the Sentara Norfolk General complex. The Fort Norfolk office had always been my choice because it's a closer & familiar route, has convenient parking and is near the Sentara Heart Hospital. I'll have to admit that I wasn't very happy when, needing to see him quickly, my only option was the Chesapeake office. I'm not familiar with the area. So venturing into unknown traffic timing, to see a doctor who is keen on starting the appointment on time or preferably early, made me apprehensive. Following WAZE's wonderful route guidance I headed south on I-64, east on Greenbrier Parkway then south on Volvo Parkway. The Sentara building sits on the east side of Volvo Parkway, rather far back from the road. Parking, including Handicapped, is plentiful. Here I was, not just on time, but early! So I've been back to this office several times. I still have issues with my lack of familiarity with the route, since I can choose lanes, turns and routes in Virginia Beach & Norfolk on autopilot. But the staff, RNs & NPs make up for that. The staff is very pleasant. Although Cardiology is quite busy during these times, they will always book appointments as a place holder with notes to try to get me in sooner. The doctor's preferred follow up date usually isn't available. But sometimes they can work magic. The Chesapeake office RNs who follow up on messages left on Voice Mail go far beyond any that I've had experiences with before. One even tracked down someone from another office who had called, but not left a message. I had no idea who had called since their caller ID is generic Sentara. The Chesapeake RN also managed to get me in at 8:30 the next morning with the Cardiologist. It was magic!! Thank you Jennifer. The Cardiologist & NP's MyChart responses to Blood Work are always prompt. That's so important when you've already seen the results. Thank you Dr. Robertson & Michelle. When I leave the office, considering there is no longer a time constraint, I always go home on the surface streets. WAZE has to direct me from Volvo Parkway to Kempsville Road. But once there, I'm on familiar terrain. I'll be coming back to this office more often. They provide service with a smile.

While Dr Ashby is excellent, his support staff is horrible.

His responses assure me that he cares about me and he is open to my holistic point of view. I like to try lifestyle changes before I start taking pharmaceutical solutions. I like his suggestion for exercise I might actually do. Haha! He helped me regulate my BP and avoid taking meds for life. His demeanor is very calming and very uplifting. He does not talk down to you he speaks to you and takes time to make sure you really understand what he is recommending to improve your health. Yup he encourages me to improve my lifestyle without making me feel inferior. I think his approach to introducing possible lifestyle changes to consider is the reason I enjoy coming to see him wherever he is working. The staff at this location are amazing. I enjoy talking to them and they are so kind. Everyone in this office should be commended for their positive attitude. I have been to both of his offices. Today I made it out without adding meds but I have to check in with him occasionally. I know if I don't they will call me. I need the push.

They got me checked in, and it was a short wait to see the doctor. I was taken back to my room and the doctor came in within about 5 minutes. The doctor was friendly and seemed to care about getting to the bottom of my health concerns. He ordered my testing and refilled my meds and I was on my way. I was checked out with the lady at the checkout desk. She was very friendly and set up all my appointments with ease. The office is clean with a decent amount of seating in the waiting area, and a tv. The staff and doctor were nice, and I recommend this office for your cardiology needs!!

My mother had an appointment scheduled with Sentara Cardiology on July 8th, but it was canceled…read morebecause the doctor had a meeting. While I understand that schedules can change, what is unacceptable is that after canceling her appointment, the earliest available rescheduled appointment was not until January 2027. For patients needing cardiac care, a delay of more than six months could have serious health consequences. It is frustrating and concerning to have an appointment canceled by the provider and then be told there are no reasonable alternatives available. Patients deserve timely access to specialty care, especially when dealing with potential heart-related issues. We are now having to seek care elsewhere because waiting until 2027 is simply not an option. I hope Sentara reviews its scheduling practices and referral processes so other patients do not face the same situation.

My husband had his CABG surgery by Dr.Coleman at Chesapeake Regional recently. The whole experience…read morewas amazing! Not only his surgery took a little over 2 hours, but he was discharged exactly 48 hours after I saw him still with breathing tube. It is a brand new department at CRH.

He is still in pain, but moving around without any help from me! Thank you, Dr. Coleman and his team!!!
