Join AAMS

Joining the AAMS provides you with a host of benefits. You will have the opportunity to increase your referral base, as you connect with more than 600 members covering the entire spectrum of allied healthcare. As a member, you will receive a free listing on the AAMS website and our mobile app, allowing colleagues and patients to easily access your profile. This is especially helpful in growing your practice, as the AAMS is a vital resource for Armenian patients seeking Armenian health practitioners. In addition, you will receive valuable professional development through CME/CDE courses offered by the AAMS. Most importantly, your membership in the AAMS enables you to make a direct impact on the health and wellbeing of the Armenian community, both locally and abroad.
