One is not greater or of more importance than the other. They are all of the same cadre. They are all government-owned and manged with the sole responsibility of handling medical cases. Like Federal Medical centers, Teaching hospitals are meant to cater for the needs of the general populace and are usually an extension of the Federal university where they are established. You would observe that all first generation universities that offer medicine have Teaching hospitals. In such instance, there is not a need for a Federal Medical center and most states with Teaching hospitals don't have one. Federal Medical center only come into the picture if a state doesn't have a Federal university or if the federal university in the state doesn't offer medicine. Both serve the same purpose and are of the same cadre; it's just that trainees don't get trained in a Federal Medical center. You would hardly come across a state that has both a Teaching hospital and a federal medical center. If one is greater than the other as insinuated, then each state should have both hospitals where one always takes a subordinate position. I stand to be corrected though. 1 Like |

First line of thought is to say "Nonsense question". But I hold back and be patient, what Usefulness will come from asking which is higher? Mention two. Even though the answer is quite obvious |

In Nigeria, both are actually the same. Pray you aren't an emergency patient in any. You'll understand it's actually the difference between 6 and half a dozen. 1 Like |

Both teaching hospital and FMC are cornered in one town - Owerri - in Imo state, whereas nothing of federal government exists outside Owerri in Imo state. Both are two big hospitals funded by the Federal allocations. But methinks, teaching hospital engages more in research and training, than FMC. Rest of Imo state outside Owerri need deliverance from the falsehood that every important government estaablishment in a state must be located in Owerri state capital. 3 Likes |

okezuoemmanue: Was it an upgrade? Or is there a new federal University that needed needed teaching hospital for its medical school? Knowing that building a new Teaching Hospital will consume lots of funds the Federal government may decide to convert the Federal medical center to a Teaching Hospital. Not upgrade 1 Like |
Re: Between Federal Medical Center And Teaching Hospital, Which Is Higher Ranked?? by finni(m): 10:14pm On Apr 16 |
Teaching hospital is higher in ranking but I will advise anyone to choose FMC over teaching hospital for treatment. Teaching hospitals use patients for experiments just like the name implies, "teaching". Kemistri3: 1 Like |

drimzsmoke: Thank God for your mother. What you’ve pasted here is terrible however considering the deplorable state of teaching hospitals nationwide, the inefficiency, the unnecessary bureaucracy, the sheer rot On balance it’s better to find a high quality private hospital with a good reputation in the Specialty you require. I’m not talking about all these strange mushroom clinics that operate from converted bungalows and Call themselves “hospital”. I mean a fully functional HOSPITAL with decent hygiene and facilities, thank you |
Re: Between Federal Medical Center And Teaching Hospital, Which Is Higher Ranked?? by drimzsmoke(m): 11:05pm On Apr 16 |
sunsweet33: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Bros, please stop it. Oya let me explain how this works. The MD of the hospital who is a consultant in that field, say a general surgeon or an obstetrician works in a teaching hospital/FMC/general Hospital and won't resume in his clinic until say 6-8 in the evening. It's the medical officer who is always on seat and will call his boss if there's a need for it If truly you've been to private hospitals very well, then you will know what you see when you 1st enter the hospital is a medical officer(a doctor who isn't specialize in anything)!!! The term "specialist hospital" Na SCAM. I'm a doctor and I'm telling you the secret of the profession. Ask the doctor you meet in your very expensive V.I "specialist" hospital when next you go for a visit!!! |
Re: Between Federal Medical Center And Teaching Hospital, Which Is Higher Ranked?? by Nwaele7(m): 11:05pm On Apr 16 |
Federal medical center is indeed far better than teaching hospitals. Teaching hospitals are now mosquitoes teaching hospitals, go and verify. |
Re: Between Federal Medical Center And Teaching Hospital, Which Is Higher Ranked?? by drimzsmoke(m): 11:09pm On Apr 16 |
mrvitalis: 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Sir, maybe you studied medicine when only surgeons used to be the CMD of the hospitals. In our days, anybody can head a department now in a teaching hospital as far as you're a consultant. You don't need to be prof to head a department anymore!!! |
Re: Between Federal Medical Center And Teaching Hospital, Which Is Higher Ranked?? by sunsweet33: 11:16pm On Apr 16 |
drimzsmoke: You need to read properly before responding. I didn’t say to look for a specialist DOCTOR and I didn’t say to look for a SPECIALIST HOSPITAL, I said that if you are able to find a private hospital that is good with a particular SPECIALTY then it’s better to go there and receive proper care in a hygienic environment that is well-staffed with high quality equipment. If truly you are a doctor then I’m sorry for your patients because your arrogance in relating to people must mean that your bedside manner is severely lacking. And I am even more worried about your reading comprehension! |

Kemistri3: Health Care and its institutions classified into 3 namely Primary, Secondary and Tertiary. Your local health centers/ clinic/ dispensary are primary institutions, your general hospital/ Medical Centers are Secondary institutions, while the Specialist/Teaching Hospitals are the tertiary institutions. I hope that answer your question 1 Like |

sunsweet33: 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 There is no such thing aridin, get that into your thick skull. Empty your "fool" cup, let me help you If you want an hospital that is good in a particular speciality, then go to a teaching hospital or an FMC I don't like argument with someone that has Down's syndrome, hence, this is my last time giving you my precious time!!! |
Re: Between Federal Medical Center And Teaching Hospital, Which Is Higher Ranked?? by sunsweet33: 11:33pm On Apr 16 |
drimzsmoke: You ought to help yourself, since you obviously don’t know how to read! How can you use Down’s syndrome as an insult? Are you normal at all? I have at least 3 reasonable private places available to me and I don’t need to waste my time being abused and experimented on in an eyesore teaching hospital by disgusting individuals like you who lack manners. Goodbye “doctor” 😆 👋🏾 |

Kemistri3: From the names, you should know they aren't comparable. Everything in life is not about competition or non-useful public conversation (comments and engagements). The Healthcare Industry is built in layers and or structures. A General Hospital's function is different from a Specialist Hospital as is different from a University Teaching Hospital and a Federal Medical Center. A Community Health Care Centre is also different from a Health Post. There is no ranking system for a Healthcare of a nation. |
