About Me

"The most rewarding part of my job? Helping someone who isn't expected to make it get up and walk out of the hospital. It's truly the best feeling ever." So says James Brennan, MD, recalling a case he had a few months ago. A young woman came to Sentara after causing a car accident during a medical emergency. Her diagnosis? An epidural hematoma sustained from an earlier fall at home. Thanks to the quick response from Dr. Brennan and his surgical team, the woman survived.
