Benazir Bhutto Hospital (Urdu: بینظیر بھٹو ہسپتال), also known as the Rawalpindi General Hospital, is a teaching hospital located on the Murree Road, Rawalpindi, Pakistan.[1] It is a major teaching hospital offering basic specialties as well as psychiatry, orthopedics, urology and cardiology. It is associated with Rawalpindi Medical University.[2]

Hospital was recognized by Punjab Healthcare Commission in 2022.

It is both the place where Liaqat Ali Khan died on 16 October 1951 and where Benazir Bhutto died on 27 December 2007. Both were Prime Ministers of Pakistan; both were assassinated in Liaqat National Bagh; and they were treated at the hospital by two doctors both called Khan, who were father and son.[3]
