Khyber Teaching Hospital, also known as "Sherpao Hospital" (Urdu: خیبر تدریسی ہسپتال, Pashto: د خیبر تدريسي روغتون, abbreviated as KTH), is a university hospital and the primary teaching affiliate of Khyber Medical College.

KTH lies on the historic route that links up to the historic Khyber Pass. This is one of the largest hospitals in the country. As a tertiary health-care facility, KTH serves as a major referral center in the region. This facility serves a large population, both domestic and foreign, in the north west region of Pakistan as well as in north eastern Afghanistan.

Khyber Teaching Hospital, formerly Hayat Sherpao Teaching Hospital, was established in 1976 as a training and biomedical research facility for the medical students of the north western region of Pakistan, as well as the teaching affiliate of Khyber Medical College.

The hospital was commissioned in 1976 for the development of scientific and research base of the Province. It is shaped like an octagon with extensions of Y-shaped wings that form a wide number of its inpatient units. The present capacity of beds is 1600, with incremental increases every few years.

A major revamp and reconstruction of its emergency facilities had begun in 2013. Restructuring and refurbishing of the entire hospital had been completed in 2021 with the establishment of a new Outpatients Department. This includes 16 procedures rooms for outpatients, pathology and diagnostic services, pharmacy, radiology, blood bank, laundry, and central sterile services department.

Under ground passage and the over-head bridge have made safer the smooth flow of patients and students between KMC, IRNUM and KTH.

Khyber Medical College, the first medical school of the province, came into existence in February, 1954. It necessitated the creation of a Teaching Hospital. Initially Lady Reading Hospital Peshawar, the then district headquarters hospital, was utilized for the purpose. But sooner the need was felt to have a teaching hospital in close proximity to the college. Plan for such a hospital was initiated in 1958 and the idea finally materialized, when General Mohammad Musa, the Governor West Pakistan, laid the foundation stone of Khyber Teaching Hospital (at that time named as Ayub Teaching Hospital) on 30 November 1967.

School of Nursing Khyber Teaching Hospital also works as an allied institution with KTH for training of student nurses since inception of the institution.
