Local chiropractor continues on the family legacy
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - A local chiropractor is keeping his grandfather's legacy alive. Dr. Richard Madrid served as a Vietnam Veteran and later became a chiropractor.
"They moved here in the 80s, and you know he founded Madrid Chiropractic here, and he had it for over 40 years here in Yuma, and you know won Yuma's Best 15 years in a row since they started it," said grandson and Madrid Chiropractic owner Dr. Devon Madrid.
Dr. Richard Madrid passed away in 2020. His grandson says his grandfather inspired him. He decided to reopen his grandfather's office Madrid Chiropractic in Yuma.
"The goals was always to come back to Yuma and serve my community and help as many people as I can like my grandfather did before me," said Dr. Madrid.
This Sunday, November 30, marks five years since his grandfather's passing. He says he hopes to continue to keep his legacy running in the family for generations to come.
"I love the legacy you know that he left, and I love that I get to carry it on. I hope my family or you know any of my family members continue it on as well," said Madrid.
