Mike O'Callaghan Military Medical Center is an American military hospital located on Nellis Air Force Base in Clark County, Nevada. It is owned and operated by the United States Air Force and is run by the 99th Medical Group (MDG).

The 50-bed medical treatment facility is staffed by members of the 99th Medical Group. The Air Force provides executive oversight of the facility and staffs all outpatient activities/clinics and inpatient beds for Department of Defense (DoD) beneficiaries. Veterans Administration (VA) patients also have privileges at the hospital if referred by the VA.

Mike O'Callaghan Military Medical Center is fully integrated into the Clark County emergency medical services (EMS) system and serves as the only hospital and trauma center in northeast Las Vegas. It is a level III trauma center and the first Air Force medical facility to treat civilian critical care and trauma patients arriving by ambulance.

The hospital was originally named Mike O'Callaghan Federal Hospital when it opened in August 1994, in honor of Nevada's 23rd Governor Mike O'Callaghan. It was later renamed Mike O'Callaghan Federal Medical Center in January 2012, and then Mike O'Callaghan Military Medical Center in March 2017.

The current Medical Center Commander is Colonel Ryan Mihata, who assumed command from Colonel Brent Johnson on July 15, 2022.
