Reviews
Research Center for Maternal and Child Health (Margaryan Maternity Hospital):
@Ekaterina12345667
As for the Research Center for Maternal and Child Health, I got a little frightened: there are 3 patients in the office, the equipment is something very old. The truth has not yet been in a hospital for pregnant women.
Անաստասիա
all pregnant women from the Embassy of the Russian Federation give birth at the Research Center for Maternal and Child Health. It is located on Mashtots Ave. Everyone who gave birth there is very praised (If at prices a year ago [2014] childbirth and 4 days cost 90.000 AM.
Նինա
I am also observed there and, in principle, satisfied, only there are questions about cleanliness, and it is embarrassing that there has not been a single examination on the chair yet. But maybe it should.)
Դիանա
She gave birth to her first child in Armenia, in the Margaryan maternity hospital, she was happy, everything was fine. On the chair, the examination was before the birth.
Slavmed Medical Center:

I paid [for childbirth] about 65,000. I came on the day of the doctor's duty and gave 30,000 to her .. and distributed the rest there.
Mom MaksaiErik
I gave birth in SlavMed_e in June 2014, I'm happy)
since I had partner childbirth (my husband was present), in addition to the gynecologist and obstetrician, there were also 7-8 people in the delivery room) which pleased everyone was female, the stern of the husband, of course
Shengavit Medical Center:

I gave birth to the eldest in Shengavit, they had an unscheduled caesarean, they paid only for the room, none of the doctors took any money. Everything at the checkout. I will give birth there as well.
martini marina
in Shengavit near Avanesova, she led me from the very beginning and I'm already used to it! I'm happy with everything
Erebuni Medical Center:
@SSS13MS
The most famous maternity hospitals in Erebuni and Astghik hospitals
@Aniskuss
There are clinics and doctors here who endlessly send you for ultrasounds and tests once again, but there are calmer ones who do not “fulfill the plan” of the hospital, but believe in you.
If you want to give yourself completely to the doctors, this is the “Mother and Child House” clinic, and if you want a soft natural birth, if you are preparing yourself, I advise Erebuni to go to different doctors, get to know each other, find your own.
Lamp
gave birth to 2 kids in Erebuni, I would never go to Russia to give birth. There prices are higher and the attitude is different. And there the conduct of pregnancy, and I remember childbirth as a holiday. Once again, they really do not strain with a chair and a bunch of all sorts of tests, if there are no problems in the anamnesis.
