University of Benin Teaching Hospital (UBTH) is a multi-specialty healthcare service provider in West Africa. The hospital is located in Ugbowo, Benin City and was established on May 12, 1973 following the enactment of an edict (number 12) of the Nigeria National Health Act.[1][2]

As the sixth of the 1st generation Teaching Hospitals in Nigeria, its establishment was to complement her sister institution, University of Benin, and to provide secondary and tertiary care to the then Mid-western Region (now Edo and Delta State) and its environs. It provides facilities for the training of a high- and middle-level workforce for the health industry. UBTH spearheads research opportunities for lecturers in the University and others who study the burden of economic morbidity as well as other research issues.[3]

Through the Community Health Centres in Ogbona and Udo, and the General Practice Clinic that came on stream later, UBTH equally provides some avenues for primary health care to the immediate communities.[4] University of Benin Teaching Hospital offers an internship training for medical professionals from various medical fields such as Medicine, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Ophthalmology, Medical Laboratory scientist, Nursing, Radiography, Dentistry, Nutrition and Dietetics, amongst other professions [5][6]
