Care built on professionalism, integrity and family
Iyare Clinic and Maternity has cared for families in Benin City for decades. What began as one doctor's commitment to his community is now a clinic where consultations, deliveries, surgeries and recovery care all happen under one roof, around the clock.
A private clinic that treats you like family
We are a private clinic and maternity centre at 10, 2nd Edokpolor Street, off Medical Stores Road in Benin City. Antenatal and maternity care, gynaecology, general and paediatric surgery, elderly care, physiotherapy, pain care and pharmacy services are all delivered here by a resident team.
Because our doctors and nurses stay with us, they know their patients by name and by history. Nobody starts from a blank chart, nobody is rushed, and every explanation is given in plain language you can act on.
Our doors are open 24 hours a day, every day of the year, because health does not keep office hours.
