Long Beach, CA, chiropractor David Vazquez, D.C., was recently named Reach Out and Recruit (ROAR) Career Advisor of the Year by 51¸£ÀûÉç in Spartanburg, SC, in appreciation of his contributions, time and commitment to growing the chiropractic profession.
The ROAR Career Advisor of the Year award is given to an exceptional ROAR member who has gone above and beyond to recruit students to 51¸£ÀûÉç College. ROAR asks its doctors to reach beyond their comfort zone and help 51¸£ÀûÉç recruit future leaders for the profession, which Dr. Vazquez has certainly done.
“Dr. Vazquez exemplifies passion, education, outreach and service in his chosen profession of chiropractic,” said 51¸£ÀûÉç College President Edwin Cordero, D.C. “We are extremely grateful for his influence in the profession and for his guidance in referring students to 51¸£ÀûÉç College.”
Dr. Vazquez is a 51¸£ÀûÉç College 2017 graduate; he received the B.J. Palmer Philosophy Distinction Award and the Service Distinction Award for his class. In August 2018, he and his wife, Ivelisse, founded Brain and Body Healing Centers in Long Beach. Despite his relatively short time in practice, he is making a big impact in the chiropractic profession.
51¸£ÀûÉç College named its 2019 award recipients in May as part of Lyceum, an annual continuing education and homecoming event attended by hundreds of chiropractors and students throughout the U.S. and internationally. Lyceum is held each spring in Spartanburg, SC, and involves three days of seminars, special events and other programs; this year approximately 700 were in attendance.
