Review from Hylary L.
4/5/2010
I've been going to Dr. Armen since he first came to Morgan Hill, and have been going to chiropractors in general for about 15 years total which makes me picky about who I see...I can tell you from experience that Dr. Armen is an awesome chiropractor! He's very skilled but laid back, doesn't require any scam-like contracts, x-rays or anything else that is not necessary, and is very reasonably priced. My insurance only covers limited chiropractics, so I even go so far as to pay for Dr. Armen out of pocket which I wouldn't do unless he was really worth it! He has an awesome practice overall, and his staff is very kind and helpful. Barb is especially nice and always makes me feel very welcome and relaxed. I highly recommend going to Dr. Armen if you want to feel your best!

"So what?" Well, a lot. CCSPs and DACRBs have more education and training on the above subjects and are held to a higher standard than a general Chiropractor. It is like going to a Sports Medicine Medical Doctor vs. a Family Practice Doctor. A CCSP/DACRB is simply better equipped to prevent, diagnose and treat sports, spinal and extremity injuries and conditions. If you have a sinus condition, would you prefer going to the Family Practice Doc who sees a variety of conditions every day, or the EENT or Allergist who only sees only what you have! Obviously, you would choose the expert. That is the ultimate point. Dr. Armen is an expert in Sports Injuries and Rehabilitation. He is held to a higher standard and offers a higher standard of care.
History
Established in 2003
After dealing with incessant headaches and neck/ low back pain following an automobile collision, Dr. Armen could not get through his weeks in college without taking pain relievers at least every other day. Following only a few weeks of care, Armen's headaches and pains almost completely ceased. Experiencing these remarkable results encouraged Armen to forego going to Dental school and instead pursue Chiropractic as a lifelong profession and passion. He had learned that given the proper circumstances and a healthy environment, the body has an amazing, intrinsic ability to help itself heal and properly function. After 4 years at Santa Clara University as a pre-med/ Combined Sciences major, Dr. Armen received his Bachelor of Science degree in 1999. He graduated Cum Laude from Palmer West College of Chiropractic in 2003.
