If you find yourself in Azare side (north of Bauchi city), this FMC is the one you go shout "take me there!" If ATBUTH na lion, FMC Azare na tiger. They offer comprehensive medical services — from surgery to internal medicine to gynecology.

They’re a federal hospital, which means better funding (hopefully) and more trained staff. Their emergency services are also top-notch. I even hear say people from Yobe and Gombe dey run come here when things choke. That’s to tell you say dem try wella.

3. Bauchi State Specialist Hospital

Ehen, this one na state-run specialist hospital. Dem dey handle surgeries, deliveries, blood tests, X-rays and the rest. One of my friends once say, “Na here dem help my grandma come back from malaria that wanted to carry her.” So I say make I include them.

Don’t expect the fanciest building, but their doctors know what they’re doing, and they take maternal and child healthcare seriously.

4. General Hospital Toro (ATBUTH Annex)

📍 Address: Near Toro Central Market, Toro, Bauchi State
