Dr. Jess Armine, DC

Most devastating experience of my life with any doctor. You have to pre-pay for his year long programs ($22,000). He took all of my money and stopped working with me after 3 weeks. Lost my life savings. I have spoken to a group of of patients that this also happened to.

Hopeless. She didn’t use that word exactly, but the subtext was there, with a little condemnation thrown in for good measure. In reality, my general physician’s words were, “There’s nothing more I can do for you.” The weight of yet another abandonment thudded in my chest, and I sat in that Beverly Hills high-rise, more alone now than ever. At least she didn’t say, “You’re just getting old, accept it,” although I had heard that too, from multiple previous specialists and doctors. This wasn’t a death sentence like it can be for so many others, but I was on disability, unable to work and debilitated by cognitive decline, brain fog, IBS, unexplained rapid weight gain, cluster headaches (AKA the “suicide headache”), and a crushing exhaustion that wouldn’t resolve no matter how much rest I had. My lab work was always decent, minus some “subclinical hypothyroidism” and familial high-cholesterol, so I was prescribed anti-depressants instead. Isn’t that often the answer? Can’t find what’s w

I was a "star patient" (as he stated many times) of Dr. Armine's for nearly one year. When I questioned him about the address listed under my name on an order form he provide for a candida test to be done, he flipped out and told me that I was no longer a patient of his. Within those 11 months as his patient, my husband I spent $10,000 in herbs as recommended by Dr. Jess and another $1,000 in "office/phone appointments" with him. He seemed to get frustrated during the last couple of months when I shared my worries about how much longer it would take to heal me since the cost of the herbs were greatly harming us financially. Now that I have nearly cleared myself of the candida (but not quite), he has left me wondering how to go about coming off the 23 pills I take every day. I spent a year of my life and $11,000 of my hard earned cash trying to clear the candida overgrowth from my body and now he has rejected me before I was able to succeed. This was a HUGE loss to my family!

Doesn't have many creative solutions. Very expensive. Doesn't pay attention during the appointments. Two stars because he's well intentioned and kind. He would stay on the phone longer than the time I paid for.

I was looking for a partnership with a physician, and did not find that. I was concerned about using a supplement that is not even available in the U.S., and appeared to have possible serious side effects, per a renowned cancer hospital review. I was rudely hung up on, before my pre-paid phone session was completed, without even being given a chance to speak. So disappointing. This was definitely not my journey to health!

Great doctor, I had severe lower back pain, I thought I might end up having surgery. Dr. Armine's treatment helped me avoid surgery, his diagnosis and explanation of my condition was professional and spot on. I would recommend him in a heart beat.
