The Benin Medical Care in Adesuwa Road, Benin City, Nigeria , is a world class healthcare  facility and a  Multi-Specialty Hospital and Diagnostic Center with ultra-modern and state-of-the -art medical equipment in the heart of Benin City.

History and operations
The hospital was founded in November 2019 with a vision to be the first-choice provider of excellent medical services. It was founded as the "Benin Medical Care" by the Founder and former Managing Director of LAPO, Dr. Godwin Ehigiamusoe. The Hospital’s Mission is ‘’to be committed to addressing health challenges of Nigerians through cutting edge technology and patient-centric approaches’’

At its founding, the hospital was entrusted to the care of the Medical Director, and Management Team, who have continued to advance the frontiers of the hospital and recorded many ground breaking successes in delivering healthcare services to the people. Under their watch they have had three landmark successful surgeries so far; first one being the open reduction and internal fixation with mini titanium plate and screws for multiple facial bone fractures, done by the maxillofacial surgeon. Vaginal hysterectomy done for uterovesical prolapse. It is the removal of the uterus without making abdominal incisions. It ensures quick recovery, ambulation, markedly reduced post-operative pain and duration of hospital stay. It also minimizes volume of blood loss and the Burr hole craniotomy was done to evacuate chronic subdural hematoma (blood collection between the inner lining of the skull bone and the brain surface).
