Phenomenal Things Are Happening at Life West

At Life Chiropractic College West, we’re entering an inspired new chapter—where innovation meets tradition, and where our legacy empowers the next generation of chiropractic leaders.

As President, my commitment is simple: to amplify what Life West does best—preparing practice-ready doctors who live their purpose.

Here, we teach more than technique. We nurture service, spark entrepreneurship, and celebrate the profound connection between chiropractic and human potential.

This page is a place to stay close to the pulse of that mission. Whether you’re a student, alum, prospective doctor, or fellow believer in the power of chiropractic, you’re invited into this journey.

Let’s do phenomenal things—together.
Let’s shape the future of this profession—together.

With gratitude,

Dr. Peter J. Kevorkian - President of Life Chiropractic College West
