The Federal Medical Centre (FMC) in Ebute-Metta, Lagos, Nigeria, is a tertiary hospital that provides teaching and research services. It was established in November 1964 as the Department of Health Services of the Nigerian Railway Corporation, exclusively serving the health needs of NRC staff and their families.
During the Nigerian Civil War, the hospital became an annex of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) for the treatment of wounded soldiers. On May 26, 2004, the Federal Executive Council approved the upgrading of the Nigerian Railway Hospital to a Federal Medical Centre. On January 31, 2005, it was formally handed over to the Federal Ministry of Health as a Tertiary Healthcare Institution and designated as Federal Medical Centre, Ebute-Metta, Lagos.
The Federal Medical Centre, Ebute-Metta, Lagos is a training institution for Resident Doctors and House Officers in Anaesthesia, Family Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Radiology, and Surgery.
