Baghdad Medical City

Baghdad Medical City (مدينة الطب) formerly known as Saddam Medical City (1983-2003) and before that known as Medical City Teaching Hospital (1973-1983) is a complex of several teaching hospitals in Bab Al-Moatham, Baghdad, Iraq. The complex stands where the former Garden of Ridvan of Baghdad was.

The Medical City includes the Baghdad University College of Medicine. The largest hospital in the complex is the Surgical Specialties Hospital built in 1980. The second largest is the Baghdad Teaching Hospital, opened in 1970,[1] which contains the out patient clinics and the emergency department. The complex has over a thousand beds for patients.

Financial crisis edit

In 2008 there was only one working elevator, out of ten, in the 18 storey building and no air-conditioning.[2]

In February 2016, the hospital, like all public hospitals in Iraq, began to charge patients for individual services. It was expected that supplies of advanced medical equipment like pacemakers and stents will run out during 2016.[3]
