I am deeply upset over the death of the renowned doctor-surgeon, academician Suren Avdalbekyan.

Armenian medicine lost a doctor and a pedagogue, a scientist and a person, who until the last days of his life continued to work with the same fervour and devotion, promoting the development of Armenian medicine and health system, conveying his knowledge and rich experience to several generations of doctors. Suren Avdalbekyan was not only a brilliant scientist, but also a wonderful man, who enjoyed great respect and liking in his circle.

I express my deep condolence all family members and friends of Suren Avdalbekyan.
