YEREVAN, APRIL 2, NOYAN TAPAN. Yerevan State Medical University's
Neurovascular Surgery Center's Radiology annex opened on March 31 in
Yerevan. It is named after the son of American Armenian benefactors
Nazar and Artemis Nazarians, American Armenian radiologist Levon
Nazarian. RA President Serzh Sargsyan, Chairman of the Armenian
General Benevolent Union Perch Sedrakian, member of the AGBU Board of
Trustees Nazar Nazarian, members of AGBU Central Board of Directors
participated in center's solemn opening.
According to Yerevan State Medical University's Rector Gohar Kyalian,
the center is of much regional significance. In the center it is
possible not only to diagnose all disorders of brain vessels but also
to stent brain vessels thus reducing the probability of insults.
It took three years to implement the program. A building of 1700
square meters was built in that period, the center has unique modern
equipment of Siemens firm which has an individual energy supply.
Center's medical personnel has raised its qualification at U.S.
Georgia state's Mercer Medical University and Georgia's Neurosurgery
Institute, German Scharite University Clinics, Austrian Grazie
Clinical Complex. 14 young doctors, neurosurgeons, radiologists,
anesthesiologist-reanimatologists were retrained with the immediate
assistance, financing and control of former graduate of Yerevan
State Medical University, currently leading neurosurgeon of Georgia's
Neurosurgery Institute Artur Grigorian.
G. Kyalian said that AGBU and its Chairman P. Sedrakian, American
Armenian benefactors Nazar and Artemis Nazarians have greatly
assisted center's opening. The benefactors have donated 1.7m dollars
to center's construction thus in fact covering the expenditures done
from the Yerevan State Medical University budget. Credit resources
of another 2.8m dollars were spent on purchasing equipment.
According to G. Kyalian, the University started to cooperate with
AGBU as far back as in 1929 when the first Armenian ophthalmological
clinic was founded with the donation of AGBU founding chairman Poghos
Nubar-Pasha. Gefferson Educational Center was created in the Medical
University in 2000.
According to P. Sedrakian, this measure once more confirms AGBU's
exact position and policy to the Homeland. The Union since the time
of its founders has been convinced that "an Armenian will survive in
the Diaspora if the Homeland survives and strengthens." "Our Union
will continue its activity and will try with its modest resources to
support the Homeland and its power," the AGBU Chairman said.
