Bellevue Medical Center (Arabic: مركز بلفو الطبي, BMC) founded in 2009, is a general hospital located in Mansourieh, Lebanon and offers healthcare services in all specialties. The hospital has a capacity of 150 beds within its eight floors.

Located on the eastern bank of the Beirut River in the Mansourieh's Qanater Zubayda region, Bellevue Medical Center overlooks an ancient Roman aqueduct known to locals as Qanater Zubayda (Zubayda's Arches).[1]

The hospital is also affiliated with some of the foremost Lebanese and European centers of medical education, Saint Joseph University, Holy Spirit University of Kaslik and Lund University.[2][1][3]

BMC received the Joint Commission International accreditation in October 2012 becoming one of only three Lebanese hospitals to meet JCI standards.[4]
