Lewis Hall
Named for Richmond philanthropists and early EVMS supporters Frances and Sydney Lewis, this is Eastern Virginia’s primary education and research facility. Dedicated in 1978, the building underwent extensive upgrades in 2011. A new café, bookstore and expanded seating were part of the renovation, along with the addition of an “active lounge,” complete with game tables and grassy area just outside the building.
Edward E. Brickell Medical Sciences Library
The Brickell Medical Sciences Library is a state-of-the-art facility with an advanced information infrastructure allowing access to a host of digital resources.

Hofheimer Hall
Named in honor of Elise and Henry Clay Hofheimer II, this building contains various clinical offices. It was built in 1985.
Andrews Hall
This building houses a variety of educational and administrative offices, including the Theresa A. Thomas Professional Skills Center, which boasts seventeen state-of-the-art exam rooms that can be redesigned as standard offices for simulated interviews and non-medical interactions. With 30,000 square feet, they are large enough to accommodate small group learners, yet small enough to maintain one-on-one patient-centered learning and assessments. Centrally located is the Observation Suite, offering a comfortable place to observe encounters in any one of the 17 exam rooms. The center's fully digital environment allows for live observation of any of the 17 exam rooms from any on-campus computer.
Opened in 1992, this building brought together in one location the physicians, scientists, and staff of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology's renowned division of reproductive medicine.
South Campus Building

Smith-Rogers Hall
Originally part of the old Leigh Memorial Hospital, this building served in the early 1970s as the temporary home for EVMS while Lewis Hall was being constructed. Today it houses EVMS administrative offices, including the Human Resources Department.
Teaching Hospitals
EVMS does not own a teaching hospital. Instead, EVMS works in partnership with hospitals, physicians, and clinics throughout the region, providing students and residents with a broad base of clinical experience. For the region as a whole, these educational partnerships spread the benefits of an academic medical center throughout the region, improving the quality of life and the quality of health care for the entire community.
