Request Your Medical Records

Please note that State and Federal laws permit fees to be charged for copies of medical records that are not for continuation of care.

Option 1: Electronic Request for Records

Sentara now offers an Online Patient Record Request tool for the following individuals to request patient records:

  • Patients requesting their own records
  • Patient requesting their own records to be sent to someone else
  • Parents of minor patients requesting records
  • Caregivers acting on behalf of a patient (i.e. Power of Attorney)

The Online tool verifies your identity by asking for a photo of your driver's license or Government issued identification, which can be taken via webcam or smartphone. There is no additional charge to use this service.
