Dear Dr Vardges Avagyan,
I hope this note finds you well. I would like to sincerely thank you and your wonderful team for your assistance on 14 March 2016 when I visited the Clinic.
I’m deeply grateful for the expert medical advice and guidance which you provided, and for helping me get “back on track” for a very demanding program of official engagement in Armenia.
I wish you and the Clinic continued success in your important work in Yerevan, and I look forward to seeing you again on a forthcoming visit!
With sincere appreciation,

MAPLE LEAFS MEDICAL CLINIC IN NORK MARASH – I’ve been in Armenia for 9 years and for 9 years I’ve been unable to answer the question, “Who is my family’s doctor?”. Until now.
I recently went in for a check and Dr. Vardges Avagyan and his team blew me away with the care I received. A repat from Toronto, Dr. Avagyan gave me 45 minutes (?!) and was extremely thorough in his examination. I felt like I was in any clinic in the US or the UK.
Which is a very long way from most of my other medical experiences in Armenia. If you are looking for an outstanding family clinic, definitely check out Maple Leafs.
To whom it may concern:
The note is a testimony of my experience at the Maple Leafs Armenian-Canadian Medical
Clinic in Yerevan, Armenia.
While out jogging one morning in Yerevan, I was bitten by a stray dog. As rabies is a fatal
disease if untreated, I sought medical advice and was referred to Dr. Varges Avagyan at the
above-mentioned clinic.
I can only say that I am grateful to Dr. Avagyan for promptly seeing me and not only treating
the wound, but also making the necessary arrangements at the Nairi Medical Center for antirabies
vaccinations. On the two occasions I went to this hospital (I finished the treatments on
my return home to Canada), he escorted me to the appropriate location at the hospital and
expedited the vaccination process so that I did not have to wait around very long. This made
a rather aggravating dog-bite situation much more easy to deal with during my business visit
to Yerevan.
Hats off to Dr. Avagyan!
