Meet Your Provider

Dr. Donald J. Ammon, Jr.
DC CICE CEDIR

Palmer College of Chiropractic graduate with advanced credentials in independent medical examination, impairment rating, and disability evaluation — serving West Texas patients with clinical excellence and forensic precision.

DC Doctor of Chiropractic — Palmer College of Chiropractic, Davenport, Iowa (est. 1897)
CICE Certified Independent Chiropractic Examiner — American Board of Independent Medical Examiners
CEDIR Certified Expert in Disability & Impairment Rating — AMA Guides-based impairment evaluation

A Clinician Built for Complex Cases

Dr. Donald J. Ammon, Jr. earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa — the world's first chiropractic school, founded in 1897 by Daniel David Palmer. Palmer is widely regarded as the "fountainhead" of chiropractic, carrying substantial prestige due to its historical primacy, large alumni base, and longstanding role in setting educational and clinical standards.

Beyond his clinical training, Dr. Ammon holds two distinguished forensic credentials that set him apart in the West Texas market. His CICE designation — Certified Independent Chiropractic Examiner — signals formal training in performing independent, objective medical evaluations used in high-stakes settings such as workers' compensation cases, personal injury litigation, and disability determinations.

His CEDIR credential — Certified Expert in Disability and Impairment Rating — reflects specialized competence in the application of the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment, with an emphasis on accurate impairment calculations, standardized methodology, and producing defensible, legally credible reports. These designations are recognized by attorneys, insurers, and administrative bodies as markers of credibility and forensic competence.

In practice, this means Dr. Ammon brings a uniquely rigorous analytical lens to each patient — whether treating an acute injury, managing chronic pain, or preparing medico-legal documentation for litigation purposes.

"Combining the clinical foundation of Palmer with advanced forensic credentials, Dr. Ammon is equipped to serve patients across the full spectrum — from first-visit acute care to complex medico-legal evaluation."
